One of the positive aspects of this season has been the reemergence of Roy Hibbert. Even though the team is not winning consistently he has been a completely different player than the guy that slumped towards the end of last season. He is playing fantastic defense, as usual, and is scoring better than ever. He finished with a season high 29 points, and also had 5 rebounds.Even if this season is lottery bound Hibbert regaining good form could be huge for his future with the Pacers.
