Spurs May Lose Parker for Up to a Month
The San Antonio Spurs will be without point guard Tony Parker for two-to-four weeks after suffering a left calf strain in last night's home game against the Grizzlies.
Parker played only 14 minutes on Sunday.
The Spurs have the best record in the NBA this season. This setback could prevent the team from having home-court advantage throughout the playoffs, which will be vital for the team to get past the powers in the Western Conference: the Lakers, Mavericks, and Thunder.
Parker is averaging 17.1 points per game, and is shooting 51.8 percent from the field.
The loss of Parker would mean additional minutes for backup guard George Hill who has been a capable replacement in games in which was inactive.
