Ausar Thompson Exits Game Against Spurs With Right Ankle Sprain

Ausar Thompson exited Thursday's game against the Spurs early in the first quarter after suffering a right ankle sprain. Thompson, who finished the night with one block in two minutes, did not return to the contest. The 23-year-old is expected to be re-evaluated within the next day and should be considered questionable for Saturday's matchup against Brooklyn. His absence forced increased rotation minutes for teammates like Javonte Green and Kevin Huerter.
