Feb 2 (The Sports Xchange) - San Antonio guard Tony Parker, a four-time NBA champion with the Spurs, told a French radio station on Tuesday that he could miss the Summer Olympics because his wife is due to give birth to the couple's second son at the end of July.

The Olympic basketball tournament runs from Aug. 6-21.

Parker, 33, said he has yet to decide whether his wife's pregnancy will force him to cancel his commitments with the national team.
