Spurs' Parker to miss four weeks

Tony Parker will be out about four weeks with a sprained left ankle, a critical blow to the San Antonio Spurs, who are off to their worst start in 12 years.

An MRI exam taken Saturday confirmed the injury to the Spurs' star guard, who was hurt during a 99-83 loss to the Miami Heat on Friday -- two nights after scoring a career-high 55 points against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Parker was driving for a layup when he rolled his ankle.

Parker, 26, was using crutches and wearing a protective boot while watching Sunday's practice. He was second in the league in scoring behind LeBron James at 27.4 points per game.

The Spurs are 1-4 and play at home against the New York Knicks on Tuesday.

WILCOX SPRAINS KNEE: Oklahoma City forward Chris Wilcox, a former standout at Enloe High, left the Thunder's game Sunday night against the Atlanta Hawks after spraining his right knee in the first quarter.

Wilcox, a reserve who was averaging 6.8 points and 5.8 rebounds, stayed under the basket for a few minutes before he walked to the locker room with trainers with 1:24 remaining in the first period. He was not expected to return.

PISTONS' STUCKEY DIZZY: Detroit Pistons guard Rodney Stuckey felt dizzy and lightheaded late in the first half and did not return to play Sunday night against the Boston Celtics.

Stuckey squatted with discomfort in the final seconds of the second quarter, then stood up with his hands on his knees. Later, Stuckey patted his chest rapidly while talking to strength coach Arnie Kander.

After slowly walking off the court, Stuckey sat on a chair outside the officials' locker room and looked woozy.
