    What's the news on it? I haven't heard anything.

    It must have been a fairly minor sprain based on post game reports ... then again with this team and injuries, I should probably take nothing for granted.

    Participated in practice yesterday. I'd be surprised if he doesn't play.

    I imagine he'll play, I just want to know how much it's going to impact his game and how long the recovery time will be.

    He seemed to play OK after he fell hard in the Houston game. X-rays after the game showed a moderate strain. There might be some pain, but swelling is the main issue. My guess is the swelling was minimal since he went full-out in practice yesterday.

    I just hope it doesn't affect his jumpshot much. His jumper has been on lately.

    It's probably that time of year where everybody is banged up, just looking at Roy and even Tim Duncan. This time separates the men from the boys.

    Didn't LMA hurt his wrist against Boston last season and suffered because of it?
