Tony Parker, Tiago Splitter and Tim Duncan have all been ruled out for Monday's game.
Parker is out with a mild strain of his left hamstring. He missed Sunday night's game in Denver with the same injury.
Splitter will sit while he works to rehabilitate an injury to his right calf muscle.
Duncan, who is not injured, has been designated to miss the game due to "rest." Monday's game will be the second game of a back-to-back.
Manu Ginobili (low back contusion) and Patty Mills (recovering from right shoulder surgery) will also miss the game.
The Spurs improved to 17-7 on the season after defeating the Nuggets 99-91 Sunday in Denver.
Tipoff is set for 9 p.m. from Portland.

[Mikeanaro]

Dont hurt us.

Cojo - Green - Kawhi - Bonner - Baynes

Beli - Anderson - Daye - Bobo - Errors off the bench?

....this could get ugly.

Cojo's defense getting exposed, tbh

[timtonymanu]

I expect LaMarcus to act like a Spurs killer again since Tiago is out, but I think Baynes can make him work for his offense.

Portland still has awful defense so the Spurs need to expose that.

Matthews will probably go off too since Scrubeli is going to be guarding him.

Hopefully the game remains compe ive for a half.

[TheGreatYacht]

Cojo is averaging an outstanding 12PPG as a starter, wow

[milkyway21]

Funny. I thought Green, our starting SG, was gonna guard him

[loveforthegame]

Obviously short handed but hope to see the Spurs play smart and hard. And stay healthy too.
