After complaining of back spasm against the Orlando Magic, Philadelphia 76ers’ Evan Turner is expected to play tonight against the San Antonio Spurs:
“I’ll get it situated right now,” Turner said after playing 13 minutes and scoring two points. “It just spasm-ed up on me. I’ll be ready to roll. It just spasm-ed up. I woke up today and I took a nap and I woke up again and it started hurting. I’m going to have it checked out again and I will be ready for Friday.”
Tonight’s matchup also pits Sixers’ big man Spencer Hawes against Spurs’ big man Tim Duncan; however, Hawes grew up admiring Duncan:
“He was a guy I thought my game was similar to,” Hawes said. “I could really try to emulate some of the things he was doing. I think his skill set was something I always admired and always tried to copy to a certain degree.”
