San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said point guard Tony Parker could sit out "a while," in the hopes of healing, once and for all, the nagging left hamstring strain that forced him to sit on Friday for the ninth time in the past 12 games.
Popovich described his strained left hamstring as “very painful” but saying that the six-time All-Star should be back in the near future.
“He saw the doctor with the MRI, and it’s basically going to be his confidence level, how he feels in a couple of workouts,” Popovich said. “We’ll just see how his body works through that. But it’s not going to be a very long time."
