Spurs' point guard Tony Parker says his stint on the injured list is over. His coach, perhaps playing coy, isn't so sure.

Parker missed his fourth consecutive game with a sprained left ankle Wednesday night at Memphis. He promises it will be his last.

Asked if he was prepared to play Saturday at home against the Los Angeles Clippers, Parker smiled and said, "Yes, definitely."

Spurs' Coach Gregg Popovich, however, isn't ready to pronounce Parker good to go just yet.

"I don't know," Popovich said. "We'll see."

Parker originally suffered the sprain in a Nov. 30 victory at Minnesota. He played on it four games before Popovich finally shut him down.
