Tim Duncan played 31 minutes in his return from a chest contusion injury on Saturday, scoring 24 points with seven boards, one assist and one block on 12-of-23 shooting. The Spurs aren't the type of team that puts their veterans on the floor unless they're almost completely healthy, so the big line from Duncan shouldn't come as a surprise. Although, the 23 field goals is high for him since he only took 23 or more shots in a game just once in all of last season. The Big Fundamental will be ready for Tuesday against the Nuggets.
