Spurs' Lee exits Game 3 in wheelchair after suffering knee injury
Chalk up another injury for the already hurting San Antonio Spurs.
Forward David Lee injured his knee in the first quarter of Game 3 on Saturday night, and was taken to the locker room in a wheelchair.
As a result of not being able to shoot his free throws on the play in question, Lee could not return. The former All-Star is set to undergo an MRI

Lee went up for a layup and drew a foul on Golden State Warriors All-Star Draymond Green, but landed awkwardly.
He came off the bench to play two minutes, scoring four points by making two of his three shot attempts prior to his exit.
Lee joins teammates Kawhi Leonard (left ankle) and Tony Parker (quadriceps) as the list of key Spurs players succumbing to injuries continues to grow.
