Branden Carlson - Fights through elbow injuryCarlson totaled 13 points (5-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-3 FT) and six rebounds in 25 minutes during Thursday's 72-58 loss to Colorado.ImpactCarlson's left arm was a near non-factor throughout Thursday's contest, representing a clear limitation for the big man's rebounding pursuits and scoring bag. Carlson's season ends with a career-high 17.2 points per game fueled by breakout three-point shooting, although it came in waves and occurred alongside a slight decrease in his defensive production. Nonetheless, the 7-footer has fringe NBA upside and will certainly catch a Summer League opportunity come July.
