Wizards' Tomas Satoransky: Settling into rotation

Satoransky put up 14 points (5-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four assists, three rebounds, one steal and one block across 20 minutes Friday in the Wizards' 122-109 loss to the Lakers.

Satoransky was largely on the outside of the rotation during his final month with the Pelicans before being dealt to the Spurs on Feb. 9, and he made just one appearance with San Antonio before agreeing to a buyout. Though Satoransky quickly found work with the Wizards squad with whom he spent his first three seasons in the league, the 30-year-old wasn't expected to be a regular contributor off the bench for a rebuilding squad. He's surprisingly emerged as a key piece of the second unit since signing with Washington, however; Satoranky has played no fewer than 14 minutes in any of the Wizards' first five games of March.
