Portland, OR (SportsNetwork.com) - Portland Trail Blazers center Robin Lopez suffered a broken right hand in Monday's victory over the Spurs.
Lopez suffered the injury in the third quarter but stayed in the game for several plays before exiting.
"I did hear it pop, but I didn't feel any pain or anything, so I was just trying to shake it off," Lopez recalled.
No timeline was given as to how long the 7-footer would be sidelined, but Lopez said there are two fractures in the hand and further tests are scheduled for Tuesday.
