With Derrick White expected to miss some time, the San Antonio Spurs are going to some help. White was on a tear in April and finally seemed back to normal before the ever-present injury bug struck him again on Monday. Ready or not, they face their toughest stretch of the season in May.
In the absence of their third-leading scorer, the Spurs will need a reliable option to make his mark for San Antonio to continue their recent winning ways. Now is the time for Lonnie Walker to have his Manu Ginobili moment.
