Lee (foot) will play during Thursday's tilt against the Grizzlies, Paul Garcia of Project Spurs reports.
EDGE Analysis
After holding Lee out of Tuesday's tilt against the Timberwolves due to a sore foot, the Spurs have cleared him to take the floor for Thursday's matchup. He's averaging 8.2 points and 5.7 rebounds across 18.7 minutes per game since the All-Star break, and will likely see similar run against the Grizzlies.

Lee (foot) is officially listed as probable for Thursday's matchup with the Grizzlies, Paul Garcia of Project Spurs reports.
EDGE Analysis
Following an absence from Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves, it was reported that Lee expected to return to the court Thursday, so his official listing as probable is only further evidence he plans on playing. Look for him to jump back into the lineup as the backup to LaMarcus Aldridge at power forward, likely affording him minutes in the mid-to-upper teens, thus limiting his overall impact in the boxscore.

Lee (foot) said he expects to suit up Thursday against the Grizzlies, Tom Orsborn of the San Antonio Express-News reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Spurs held Lee out of Tuesday's win over the Timberwolves with the sore foot, but the team never planned on having the big man sidelined for long. Assuming he's able to complete Thursday's morning shootaround without issue, Lee should settle back in as the primary backup to starting power forward LaMarcus Aldridge. Lee is averaging 8.3 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 16.7 minutes per game in his three appearances since Aldridge returned to the lineup following a brief health scare.

Lee will not play in Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves due to a sore foot.
EDGE Analysis
Lee's foot injury likely isn't anything serious and the Spurs will remain cautious with the veteran power forward as they hit the road for one game before taking on a four-game homestand. In Lee's absence Tuesday, look for Davis Bertans, who started last game against the Kings, to see extended run in the frontcourt with Dewayne Dedmon also in line to possibly see additional minutes.

Lee will move back to the bench for Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers, Paul Garcia of Project Spurs reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lee has started the last two games in place of LaMarcus Aldridge, who needed some time off to undergo further testing on a heart arrhythmia. However, after doctors gave Aldridge the go ahead to play, he'll re-enter the starting five at power forward, which pushes Lee back into a bench role. After logging 30 minutes Monday, look for Lee's playing time drop down closer to the 19.6 minutes he's averaged throughout March.

Lee totaled 14 points (7-8 FG), six rebounds, four assists and one block across 30 minutes during a 107-99 win over the Hawks on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Lee got another start with LaMarcus Aldridge (chest) out, and received more minutes this time. Due to the fact that he received 30 minutes, he was able to post a solid all-around line in the win. Unless the team is blowing out opponents, which will happen from time to time, Lee should put up numbers like this in Aldridge's absence.

Lee offered 12 points (4-6 FG, 4-4 FT), six rebounds and two assists over 18 minutes in Saturday's 107-85 win over the Warriors.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran may be in for a multi-game run with the starters now that LaMarcus Aldridge has been sidelined with a heart issue. Lee provided the typically solid contributions he'd already proven capable of earlier this season when filling in for Pau Gasol, racking up an impressive point total relative to his modest time on the court. Coach Gregg Popovich limited Lee's minutes in the blowout, but he certainly could see a much greater amount of playing time in the coming games that are much closer in score, rendering him a prudent grab off the wire for the time being.

Lee will start at power forward in Saturday's game against the Warriors, Tom Orsborn of the San Antonio Express-News reports.
EDGE Analysis
With LaMarcus Aldridge out indefinitely due to a heart issue, David Lee will get the start at power forward Saturday and likely will for the foreseeable future. It will be Lee's eighth start of the season, and he's been averaging 11.5 points and 10.1 rebounds in 29 minutes per game in those starts. Look for Lee to play a similar dosage in the frontcourt Friday and serve as a potentially strong value play in DFS against a undermanned Warriors team.

Lee finished with 18 points (8-9 FG, 2-5 FT) while adding 10 rebounds and two blocked shots over 31 minutes in Wednesday's 114-104 win against the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Lee was a beast, picking up the slack with Kawhi Leonard and LaMarcus Aldridge each resting. He is averaging 11.5 points and 10.0 rebounds in eight starts this season, so he is an outstanding DFS option when he is plugging into the starting five. Normally Lee is only worth a look in deeper fantasy formats when coming off the bench.

Lee will start at power forward for Wednesday's game against the Kings, Tom Orsborn of San Antonio Express-News reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Spurs are opting to rest both Kawhi Leonard and LaMarcus Aldridge, which allows Lee to jump into the starting lineup at power forward. Lee has been very effective in seven previous starts this season, averaging 10.6 points, 10.0 rebounds and 1.6 assists across 28.5 minutes, so he should be considered a decent value play for Wednesday's DFS slate.
