Warith Alatishe - Another limited outing Alatishe supplied three points (1-4 FG, 1-2 FT) and one rebound in six minutes during Saturday's 86-63 loss to Colorado. Impact As expected, Alatishe had his minutes greatly limited while battling multiple knee injuries. It was actually worse than anticipated, as the 6-8 forward was expected to see roughly six minutes per half, but he was ultimately on the court for six minutes combined. Alatishe was once easily considered the Beavers' best player, as he averaged 12.3 points, 6.6 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.1 blocks and 1.0 steals over the first 15 games of the season. The rebuilding, 3-17 Beavers have little excuse to rush him back in a lost season, however, so it might be difficult hanging on to Alatishe in redraft leagues given the current usage. Meanwhile, Maurice Calloo seems to be picking up a good chunk of the usage left behind.
