Hornets' Taj Gibson: Quiet in spot start
Taj Gibson had five points (2-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt), four rebounds and one steal over 16 minutes during Monday's 114-93 loss to Minnesota.Gibson was given the starting nod, a fair indication as to how desperate the Charlotte Hornets are when it comes to the center position. Mark Williams (foot) and Nick Richards (shoulder) are both sidelined, meaning Gibson is going to be forced to play for the foreseeable future. Now in the twilight of his career, this move is unlikely to result in meaningful production.

Pistons' Taj Gibson: Scores five points in return
Taj Gibson (hamstring) tallied five points (2-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt) in nine minutes off the bench in Saturday's 113-103 loss to the Nets.Making his return from the right hamstring strain that had sidelined him for each of the previous nine games, Gibson ended up being needed as a backup center while Detroit had only 10 players available. Assuming the Detroit Pistons get at least one of Jalen Duren (ankle), Tosan Evbuomwan (G League assignment) or Simone Fontecchio (toe) back in action for Tuesday's game in Philadelphia, Gibson will likely find himself outside of the rotation.
