Bismack Biyombo controls the paint in Raptors' Game 4 victory
Toronto Raptors center Bismack Biyombo was terrific yet again during a win over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday, finishing with five points, 14 rebounds, one assist and three blocks in 42 minutes.
Biyombo was fantastic on defense in Game 4, so much that even though Jonas Valanciunas was available to play, he never got off the bench. With how well he has performed, it will be interesting to see if Biyombo loses any minutes to Valanciunas in Game 5 on Wednesday -- assuming Valanciunas is ready to return to the court.
Biyombo is owning the glass in the playoffs. He leads all players this postseason in offensive, defensive and total rebounds, and his Defensive Rebounding Percentage of 33.0 percent is behind only Valanciunas and DeAndre Jordan among qualified players this postseason. Biyombo is averaging 8.8 points, 13.7 rebounds and 2.0 blocks per-36 minutes in the playoffs.
