What It Means:

Head coach Gregg Popovich suggested that Parker's rehab is going well. "Tony's at the point where he's been going 5-on-5 and that kind of thing," Popovich said. He added, "It'll be a few more weeks. But he's definitely going in the right direction." The Spurs will be cautious with their 35-year-old veteran and he should see limited minutes and off days even when he returns. Patty Mills and Dejounte Murray will continue to get a lot of burn until then.

Our models have Parker down for averages of 10.5 points, 4.3 assists and 26.2 minutes in his 17th NBA season.
