Gregg Popovich: LaMarcus Aldridge 'will probably play' for Spurs versus Thunder despite knee contusion
San Antonio Spurs forward/center LaMarcus Aldridge "will probably play" against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Thursday, head coach Gregg Popovich said.
What It Means:
The Spurs seemed to get off lucky, as an MRI revealed that there was no structural damage to Aldridge's knee. If he is limited, then expect Pau Gasol and Davis Bertans to pick up the slack.
Aldridge carries a hefty price tag of $8,900, but numberFire projects him to play 33.5 minutes and get 40.0 fantasy points.
