Spurs' LaMarcus Aldridge: Reunion spoiled by former teammates

Aldridge (heart) finished with 19 points (9-24 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds and four assists across 32 minutes in Wednesday's 110-106 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Analysis:

Aldridge looked a little rusty after missing the past two games while dealing with a heart arrhythmia, but the Spurs were likely just happy to see him receive medical clearance to play Wednesday after perhaps fearing a longer absence. The fact that Aldridge played significant minutes right away suggests he won't face any limitations moving forward, so fantasy owners can feel comfortable deploying him as they normally would.
