Spurs' Nicolas Laprovittola: Returns to bench role

Laprovittola will return to the bench for Monday's game against the Bucks, Bucks radio play-by-play announcer Ted Davis reports.

Analysis:

Tony Parker has missed the last two games with a lingering knee injury, but has been cleared for a return to the court and will take on his normal role as the team's starting point guard. Laprovittola will head to the bench in the corresponding move and will likely see his minutes take a big hit, after logging 20 and 19 minutes over the last two games. Unless another injury occurs, Laprovittola can be avoided in traditional fantasy leagues.
