Tim Duncan is expected to play vs. the Bobcats on Saturday. The Big Fundamental racked up 31 points, 11 rebounds, five assists, two steals and three blocks on Wednesday, leading to a precautionary day off Thursday. He's been on fire lately and the Spurs will need his defense to contain Al Jefferson, especially if Tiago Splitter (calf) can't suit up, so make sure he's in your active lineups.
