As expected, Tiago Splitter will return to action on Wednesday after getting one game off to rest. "Tiago has been doing yeoman's work underneath the last two, three, four games as far as having to be banging around with those big guys," said Gregg Popovich. "It was great to give ... his body a little bit of a rest. It worked out well." Splitter hasn't averaged more than 22 minutes per game in any month this season, and Popovich's scrupulous management of his playing time makes him a lousy fantasy center in most formats. In 49 games this season, Splitter is averaging 8.5 points, 6.2 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 0.5 steals and 0.6 blocks.
