Will Spurs’ Tiago Splitter Play in Opening Round?

Tiago Splitter participated in portions of Friday’s practice, but coach Gregg Popovich wasn’t about to tip his hand as to whether the Spurs’ starting forward will be available when their first-round playoff series with the Los Angeles Clippers opens on Sunday.

“We’d love to play him as much as we can,” Popovich said. “We’ll see. If he plays, he plays. He’s progressing.”
