</td></tr><tr><td class="bodyCopy">Updating an earlier item, the San Antonio Express-News confirmed that Manu Ginobili (oblique) is still expected to miss "about two weeks."</td></tr><tr><td>

</td></tr><tr><td class="vaLink">There was an item posted at NBA.com that quoted Gregg Popovich as saying Ginobili would miss "several weeks," but this report posted late on Monday evening is much more reliable. Gary Neal stepped up on Monday with 14 points on 4-of-13 shooting (including three treys), but it's anybody's guess if he can keep it up going forward.

</td></tr><tr><td class="bodyCopy">Anthony Parker (back) is inactive for Tuesday's game against the Pistons.</td></tr><tr><td>

</td></tr><tr><td class="vaLink">Coach Byron Scott has already hinted that Parker may be held out through the All-Star break. The Cavs have also called up shooting guard Manny Harris from the D-League. It remains to be seen if Parker gets his starting gig back once healthy.
