Brooklyn Nets (22-13, second in the Eastern Conference) vs. San Antonio Spurs (17-12, fifth in the Western Conference)

Brooklyn visits San Antonio trying to continue its five-game road winning streak.

“I don't think it's serious,” said Nash. “I think it's maintenance. He knows his body, he's discussed it with us, he has history with that shoulder and he is taking the necessary precautions to make sure he can keep up the maintenance on that shoulder, but I don't think it's anything more than that. So, I'd expect him to play in the next game and if not, I don't think this is a thing that will linger into the All-Star break.”

The Spurs are 8-8 in home games. San Antonio is third in the Western Conference with 35.7 defensive rebounds per game led by Dejounte Murray averaging 6.6.

The Nets are 9-7 in road games. Brooklyn leads the Eastern Conference scoring 120.7 points per game while shooting 49.9%.

The matchup Monday is the first meeting of the season between the two teams.
