Thanks in large part to George Hill, the San Antonio Spurs have been able to withstand the absence of Tony Parker. With Hill now sidelined with an ankle injury, Parker is ready to reclaim the reigns.
After missing a month with a broken finger, Parker will make his surprise return Tuesday night when the Spurs visit the Sacramento Kings.
A 100-81 win over the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday was bittersweet for San Antonio (47-29), which outplayed the Western Conference's top team to secure a playoff spot but lost Hill to a sprained ankle in the second quarter.
Hill, expected to miss at least two games, has averaged 15.8 points in 41 games as a starter this season. He moved to point guard when Parker broke his right ring finger in early March and helped the Spurs to an 11-5 record without the three-time All-Star.
Parker was expected to miss about another week, but he was cleared to play Tuesday.
