The 19-year-old wanted to play, but coach Gregg Popovich held his star as a precaution.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf it was a playoff game, I probably would have played him,\u201d Popovich said. \u201cHe\u2019s not happy about it, but I would rather err on the conservative side since it\u2019s the same ankle that he just got a time limitation on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>San Antonio are not faring any better after stopping the worst run of games with 18 defeats.
