Lopez (hand) doesn't have a timetable for a return to the court, but an evaluation Tuesday could clear that up, CSN Northwest reports.

Analysis:

To date, there has been a range of recovery time frames bandied about for Lopez's fractured right hand, but the situation could soon gain clarity after the upcoming exam. While his absence is expected to expand Chris Kaman's workload, it remains unclear who will replace Lopez in the starting five. If coach Terry Stotts opts to keep the frontcourt rotation relatively intact, with Kaman coming off the bench, Meyers Leonard, Joel Freeland, and even Thomas Robinson could all factor into the mix at center for the foreseeable future.
