AT&T CENTER – Midway through their season, the San Antonio Spurs have been able to avoid the injury bug for the most part, with none of their core players missing an extended amount of time outside of Tony Parker and Danny Green.
However, prior to the Spurs’ home game against the Denver Nuggets Thursday, in pregame warm-ups, Gasol injured his left fourth metacarpal (or, a bone in his left hand on the ‘ring’ finger). After he was pulled from the starting lineup, the Spurs announced Gasol fractured the finger.
The team announced a timeline for Gasol’s return will be determined at a later date.
