Manu Ginobili will make his return from a broken left hand Saturday night in New Jersey.

“I don’t have great expectations for the first couple of games,” Ginobili said. “I just want to contribute, help a little bit. Just try to fit in again.”

The Spurs went 15-7 in Ginobili’s absence and own the NBA’s longest current winning streak at six games.

“Maybe it screws us up for a while, maybe it doesn’t,” coach Gregg Popovich said. “He’s Manu. When he’s ready to go, you don’t care if you’re winning, losing. It doesn’t matter. He’s coming back.”
