Joel Przybilla has been a huge surprise so far this season for the Blazers. With Greg Oden out for the season the Blazers needed someone on their roster to step up and Przybilla has been that guy. In his first 17 games this season Przybilla has averaged 18.9 minutes, 5.0 points, 6.6 rebounds, 0.3 assists and 1.2 blocks per game. The Blazers would be pleased if Przybilla can keep up this level of play for the rest of the season.
