San Antonio Spurs guard Manu Ginobili’s right ankle has taken a turn for the worse.  The Spurs said tests showed Ginobili had an increased narrow edema and stress fracture in his right distal fibula.  I have no clue what that means; however, it will keep him out for the rest of the season, including the playoffs.

This is a huge blow to a Spurs team that may have been able to beat Los Angeles this year, but most likely not.  During the past couple seasons, Kobe Bryant and the Lakers have dominated the four-time champions.

To replace the injured guard, Spurs GM R. C. Buford is looking to resign retired Hall of Famer David Robinson to a 20-game contract.
