OAKLAND (NBA) - Italy international Marco Belinelli will only be sidelined for 10 days due to the ankle sprain he suffered in Golden State's game against Indiana at the weekend.
The injury has come at an unfortunate time for Belinelli, who had gone from rarely playing to starting and averaging 13.8 points in the last 19 games.
Golden State are riddled with injuries, and that showed in Wednesday's game against Sacramento when the struggling Monarchs travelled north to Oakland and won 135-133.
Sacramento lost to the Los Angeles Lakers in last year's Western Conference Finals but won their latest encounter.
Argentina international Manu Ginobili came off the bench and led the Spurs with 27 points while France point guard Tony Parker and former Team USA big man Tim Duncan each contributed 20.
The Spurs are 25-12 after the triumph while LA are 31-7.
