Spurs' Duncan has quadriceps tendinitis

Feb 25, 2009 - 9:19 PM SAN ANTONIO (Ticker) -- San Antonio Spurs forward Tim Duncan has been diagnosed with right quadriceps tendinitis and will miss Wednesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers.

Duncan, who also missed Tuesday's 93-76 win over Dallas, is listed as day-to-day.

San Antonio was without two of its top three players against Dallas, with guard Manu Ginobili out for the next few weeks thanks to a stress reaction in his right ankle.

A perennial All-Star, Duncan leads the Spurs in scoring (20.7) and rebounding (10.7).

The Spurs also announced that center Fabricio Oberto suffered a non-displaced fracture in his left thumb Tuesday. He will be fitted with a splint and play against Portland.
