Apparently, Tracy McGrady can change directions after all.

A day after he could not finish practice and said he was unlikely to play Saturday against the San Antonio Spurs, he went through all of Friday's practice without problems and said after that he is 75 percent certain he would play.

"I'm better, better," McGrady said. "I was able to get through practice. There was a little bit of pain. Mentally, I was better than yesterday. It's coming along.

"I got to see how I feel tomorrow, come in for shootaround. If I feel good, I'll play tomorrow. There's a chance. There's a good chance I could play tomorrow."
