Matt Bonner filled in admirably for Tim Duncan (rest) on Sunday, notching 10 points, two 3-pointers, seven rebounds, one steal and one block in 27 minutes.
Bonner didn't turn the ball over, and as usual the threat of him lurking in 3-point territory helped open the court for San Antonio. He's shooting 45.9 percent from downtown this year, which is fourth-best in the NBA. Manu Ginobili is third at 46.5 percent.

Matt Bonner (back) hit four 3-pointers in his return on Friday, scoring 14 points on 5-of-7 shooting with three rebounds, five assists, and two blocks in 26 minutes.
This is the first noise he has made in some time, and we're skeptical about owners' ability to figure when and if Bonner is going to be productive from night-to-night. And if the Spurs ever make it to full strength, the recent additions of Stephen Jackson and Boris Diaw aren't helping matters, either.

Matt Bonner (back) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Mavericks.
Bonner should be ready to go after a one-game absence. With Tiago Splitter (back) sidelined, Bonner could see more than his typical 18-22 minutes. He's averaged 5.7 points and 1.7 treys in 21.5 minutes since the All-Star break.

Matt Bonner (back spasms) won't play on Wednesday against the Timberwolves.
This is the first we've heard about Bonner having issues with his back so we're going to call it a day-to-day injury at this time. DeJuan Blair, Tiago Splitter and Tim Duncan should all see an increase in minutes with Bonner out.

Matt Bonner hit five 3-point shots on Monday, scoring 20 points on 6-of-8 shooting with one rebound, one assist, and one steal in 31 minutes off the bench.
Bonner got hot 2-3 weeks back, hitting 15 triples in a four-game span, but since then has averaged just under 2.0 threes per game in February contests before tonight. If you're desperate for threes, give him a look in hopes you can catch him at the right time.

Matt Bonner hit five 3-point shots in Monday's win, scoring 15 points on 5-of-10 shooting (5-of-9 from deep) with three rebounds and one block in 24 minutes off the bench.
Bonner has hit 15 triples in his last four games, and is well worth a look if you need a boost in that department while he's hot. Just don't be surprised if he cools off by the time you get him in your weekly lineup.
