After reports just yesterday that Suns Center Robin Lopez would be unavailable for the 2nd round series with the Spurs, just today Robin himself reverses course.
Now Robin Lopez Says He Will Play
Following his first full practice since being sidelined with a bulging disk in his back in late March Lopez told SB Nation’s Phoenix Suns blog Bright Side of the Sun this about his status:
“I definitely think that I will be able to put in some time this series. What game I will first come in, I’m not sure yet. I’m going to keep working in practice and we’ll see how I feel.”
Robin is not known in Phoenix media circles for his sense of humor but he let this one fly today which more than anything is a positive sign of his recovery.
Asked if he is ready to go now, Robin joked, “If I played today, Duncan might get that quadruple-double he was going for a few years back.”
