Andris Biedrins

Biedrins is one of the players that the Jazz recieved in a trade with Golden State prior to the season. However, he is the Jazz player who has seen the least amount of playing time this season, and that isn’t his fault.

Before the season opener, Biedrins injured his ankle in practice and had to sit out awhile. He still hasn’t seen the court much since returning from injury, only playing in 6 games for the Jazz. However, that is partly due to Enes Kanter being moved from starting center to primary backup center.

In 6 games, Biedrins is averaging 7.4 minutes, 0.5 points, and 2.8 rebounds. Not a lot to get excited about but he hasn’t really played. His grade mainly is a reflection of the rebounding. Only averaging 7.4 minutes and he manages to grab 3 rebounds in that time is nice to see.

Grade : C –
