The Spurs will be without starting center Francisco Elson for about two weeks as he has a small tear in his rotator cuff.  Elson had been averaging 18.7 minutes, 5.3 points, 5.1 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game so far this season.  Look for the Spurs to distribute his minutes among Fabricio Oberto, Jackie Butler, Robert Horry and Eric Williams.  The Spurs probably won’t miss Elson too badly because of all the veteran depth that they have in the frontcourt.
