Spurs' Derrick White expected to miss remainder of season with ankle sprain

"You can imagine his spirits are not high," Popovich said.

The San Antonio Spurs will be without Derrick White for the remainder of the season.

Per ESPN, The San Antonio Spurs do not expect starting guard Derrick White back this season because of a sprained right ankle, coach Gregg Popovich said Wednesday.

White was injured in the Spurs’ win Monday in Washington. The fourth-year guard is averaging a career-best 15.4 points this season for San Antonio, which played 18 of its first 19 games this season without White because of a toe injury.

“You can imagine his spirits are not high,” Popovich said.
