Description: Tiago Splitter is doubtful for Game 2 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals Wednesday against Utah with a bone bruise in his left wrist. | Insight: Splitter is about as unpredictable as they come and because of it he's difficult to start in any fantasy situation.

Splitter had missed the previous four games dealing with back spasms. | Insight: The Spurs have had a brutal schedule as of late (five games in six nights) so having a rested Splitter back in the lineup should be a huge asset.

Description: After missing the preseason with a foot injury, Splitter is expected to make his NBA debut tonight. | Insight: The only thing holding him back from being a good fantasy option is that he's splitting time with DeJuan Blair and even then his minutes will be limited.
