San Antonio Spurs’ forward, Matt Bonner, will not be playing for the Canadian basketball team at the world championship later in Turkey this month.

So breathe easy Spurs fans. No need to worry about another Spurs player going down with an injury. A few days ago Spurs’ center, Tiago Splitter, suffered a contusion playing for Brazil at the Super Four Tournament but after an MRI, the injury was not serious.
