It was just under five minutes.

To be exact, 4:57 very forgettable minutes for Matas Buzelis.

That was all the playing time he was given in the Friday loss to Boston. He made a basket in that first quarter stint but had several miscues to finish a minus-7 in the plus/minus category. Really all coach Billy Donovan needed to see from the rookie on that night.

Fast forward to Monday’s game against Brooklyn, and back in off the bench was Buzelis in his normal rotation spot.
