David Lee

David Lee will not play Saturday in San Antonio

San Antonio Spurs forward/center David Lee (left knee contusion) will not play Saturday against the Charlotte Hornets.

What It Means:

Lee is only averaging 17.0 minutes off the bench this season, so his absence won't have a huge impact on the Spurs' frontcourt rotation. Dewayne Dedmon will receive a boost in minutes, as could Pau Gasol and LaMarcus Aldridge. This will be Lee's first missed game of the season.

Our models project Dedmon to play 18 minutes and have 5.7 points, 6.9 rebounds and 1.3 blocks against the Hornets.
