Overview
- An MRI on Nov. 14 confirmed a left calf strain sustained against the Warriors after contact with Brandin Podziemski.
- He missed the Nov. 16 game vs. the Kings and the Nov. 18 game vs. the Grizzlies and is expected to sit the Nov. 20 matchup with the Hawks.
- The team and multiple reports outline a provisional two-to-three week recovery window with re-evaluation planned in that span.
- A Spurs insider reported he appeared comfortable in light work, yet a team plan calls for at least two weeks on the sideline.
- Before the setback he averaged 26.2 points, 12.9 rebounds and 3.6 blocks for a 10–4 start, reinforcing the case for a conservative approach.
