The Spurs will be without Tony Parker the next few games as he deals with a left ankle sprain.

From ESPN.com:

The Spurs said Thursday that the swelling in Parker’s ankle was minimal after being carried off the court Wednesday night in a win over Atlanta. No structural damage was found.

Parker won’t play Friday against Memphis and will also likely sit Sunday’s game against Denver. No timetable for his return has been set.

Parker has been troubled by the same foot all season. He missed four games earlier because of another ankle sprain and has been bothered by plantar fascitis.

The Spurs need Parker back at full strength quickly. Parker truly is one of the best point guards in the Western Conference and the Spurs are going to struggle without him running the offense.
