Victim of a ruptured quadriceps tendon in May, Tony Parker hopes to find the floor after two months of fitness. If he has the go-ahead from the doctors, the leader of 35 does not want to grill the stages.
Tony Parker is at his home in San Antonio. The 35-year-old is a relay of Gregg Popovich, one of the pillars of the Spurs: the Frenchman weighs four titles of NBA champions with San Antonio. But since his injury to the tendon of the quadriceps last May before confronting Houston in play-offs and the operation that followed, TP has not yet replayed with his teammates despite the green light of the doctors. "I will wait a little longer before resuming with the group. I'll be careful. I want to come back to play everything thoroughly, "he explained at a press conference on Tuesday. With his long career, the native of Bruges knows just how cautious it is to be on the point of coming back from injury. The Frenchman should however return two months earlier than originally announced.
Parker: Stop my career has never crossed my mind »
Despite the unavailability of their veteran, the Spurs did not recruit a flagship leader during the offseason. Patty Mills has been extended and will take the place of the international retiree in the starting five until he is back in shape. Tony Parker was "positive" during his convalescent period. "Stopping my career never crossed my mind. It does not matter what people say. I just wanted to work hard to get back and finish my career in a beautiful way, "he said. Under contract until 2018 when he is to receive $ 16.2 million next season, Tony Parker will try to win a new three-year contract to reach the 20-year Texas Textile franchise jersey. Only Kobe Bryant has done so far with the Lakers.
