Nicolas Batum limited in full practice
Nicolas Batum - G/F - Portland Trail Blazers
Dec. 12, 2012 - 4:20 PM ET

Nicolas Batum (back) went through a full practice Wednesday, but coach Terry Stotts says the swingman is not yet 100 percent.

Batum is likely to sit until he's fully healed so as not to aggravate the injury again, but the fact that he upped his practice participation Wednesday is a good sign. We'll keep an eye on his status Thursday morning ahead of a matchup with the Spurs. If Batum is out, Sasha Pavlovic and Luke Babbitt will see the biggest boost in playing time.
