LaMarcus Aldridge: Remains questionable for Wednesday's game

The Spurs continue to list Aldridge (ankle) as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Mavericks, but teammate Boris Diaw seemed to hint that the star big man could be available for the contest, Jeff McDonald of the San Antonio Express-News reports.

Analysis:

When McDonald asked Diaw who would be tasked with covering the Mavs' Dirk Nowitzki for the game, Diaw said, "Probably LaMarcus," intimating that Aldridge would be available. That's far from an official declaration that Aldridge will play, however, and more clarity on that front likely won't arrive until the Spurs conduct pregame warmups 30 minutes ahead of the 8:30 ET tip. Because games will already be underway at that day, Aldridge remains a highly risky lineup choice for those playing in daily contests.
