Parker (ankle) has officially been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Lakers, Tom Orsborn of San Antonio Express-News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Parker came into Thursday with a doubtful designation, so this was the expected move all along. Look for the Spurs to remain as cautious as possible with their veteran point guard and it wouldn't be surprising if he missed more time considering coach Gregg Popovich's conservative approach. With Parker out Dejounte Murray and Patty Mills should see expanded roles, with Murray being the expected replacement in the starting five.

Parker (ankle) is doubtful to play during Thursday's contest against the Lakers.
EDGE Analysis
Parker sprained his right ankle during Monday's contest against the Kings, which is giving him enough discomfort to likely keep him from lacing up Thursday. A confirmation on his status, or just more information, should emerge following that day's morning shootaround. If he's ultimately held out, Patty Mills and Dejounte Murray would likely see the bulk of the run at point guard.

Parker is not listed on the injury report for Monday's game against the Kings, Paul Garcia of Project Spurs reports.
EDGE Analysis
Parker got the night off for rest on Sunday, but as expected, he'll return to the lineup after just a one-game layoff. Look for him to reclaim his starting point guard role and likely see minutes around his season average of 21.6. With Parker returning, look for Dejounte Murray to head to the bench once again and fall to the back end of the rotation as the third point guard behind Parker and Patty Mills.

Parker won't play in Sunday's game against Portland due to injury management purposes.
EDGE Analysis
Parker was sidelined for rest purposes on Wednesday before returning to play Friday. With the Spurs set for a back-to-back set on Sunday and Monday, they're likely sitting Parker Sunday so that he's a go for Monday's game against Sacramento. Look for Patty Mills and Dejuounte Murray to see an uptick in minutes as they handle the bulk of point guard duties in Parker's absence.

Parker isn't listed on the injury report for Friday's game against the Suns.
EDGE Analysis
Parker received the night off for rest Wednesday against the 76ers for load management purposes, but as expected, he'll rejoin the lineup ahead of Friday's contest. Look for him to rejoin the starting lineup at point guard, which should push Dejounte Murray to the bench and to the back end of the team's regular rotation. Patty Mills could also lose a few minutes. In the six games prior to Wednesday's rest, Parker had averaged 9.8 points, 2.3 rebounds and 3.8 assists across 24.3 minutes.
