He ran outta gas tonight, after playing a really complete game... I wouldn't be surprised if Pop sits him tomorrow against Chicago...
I know that Manu's minutes have been down but I've been pretty impressed that he's been one of the very few who's stayed healthy all season long even after carrying the team a lot lately and at his age. Who would've ever thought. How in the world has he stayed healthy. I expected him to have an injury by now.

Bulls game is on Thursday, actually.
Chicago is Thursday no?
his injuries usually come right before the playoffs
if he had kept playing 30 mins / game he would have needed a wheelchair by march. thankfully Parker and Kawhi are back and Pop can scale him down to a favorable level. Here's to hoping he's healthy come playoffs
oops, my bad. Still, wouldn't be surprising if he starts getting some well deserved rest sooner rather than later.
It's really amazing also due to the fact that he had that fracture in the playoffs last June, and basically did not work out over the Summer. Hopefully he gets some rest not, and stays healthy.
Plenty of time left tbh.
Had a poor shooting night but, 8 dimes, 1 TO, +15 in 24 minutes.... pretty solid overall.
Let's not JINX it please.
Next will be Chicago. Let him play.
Then rest him in the next 6 home games.
Could have been the at ude
Pretty banged up each game...
Change of diet and all this stretching improved his health a lot ... *knock on wood*
Off-season training, diet, and Pop's minute management - A bit of all three I think. Really impressed with his durability especially considering how often he attacks the basket(at age 37 no less). Still, I hate threads like this because you just know it's going to jinx Manu's health.
Dude is playing great at 37 years old, he has been a pro since age 18 but "oh, he's so injury prone
"
