The Spurs are peaking at the right time.
As the playoffs approach, San Antonio again looks like a strong championship contender. Tonight’s romp over the Thunder only reinforces that perception.
But health is always a concern for an aging team (yes, even the Spurs), and there’s reason to at least keep an eye on Tony Parker.
INJURY UPDATE: Tony Parker (tightness, right Achilles) will not return to tonight’s game.

Parker left late in the first half, and the Spurs led, 63-41, at halftime. They also play the Rockets tomorrow.
Hopefully, this is mostly precautionary.
