Spurs’ Duncan to miss at least one game 02.28.2004
|
Duncan is suffering from irritation of the left patellofemoral joint and will undergo treatment, including exercises, to strengthen his left quadriceps muscles.
He played 25 minutes during a loss against Dallas on Thursday before exiting in the third quarter with severe pain in the joint. Duncan finished with 22 points and 17 rebounds.
The two-time reigning MVP will not play in Saturday’s game against Denver and will be re-evaluated next week.
In 54 games this season, Duncan is averaging 23.2 points and 13.0 rebounds per contest, both team-highs.
