Tim Duncan

Tim Duncan set to return to Spurs' lineup

San Antonio Spurs power forward Tim Duncan (knee) will return on Wednesday against the Orlando Magic.

What It Means:

He's been doing more in practice and has been working in pre-game warmups. Duncan has been out since January 22, so expect his minutes to be limited tonight. That will push David West to the bench, and the chances of a Boban Marjanovic sighting drop tonight.

Despite a career low in minutes played per game, Duncan remains effective when on the court. His 5.1 nERD ranks 32nd. He's averaging 8.9 points, 7.5 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.3 blocks per game while posting a 54.4 True Shooting Percentage.
