SAN ANTONIO -- Spurs small forward Stephen Jackson broke a bone in the pinky of his right (shooting) hand and is expected to miss four to six weeks. It happened in the first quarter tonight against the Clippers.

The Spurs already are weak at that spot. Jackson was starting in place of Kawhi Leonard, who will miss at least the next week with left quadriceps tendinitis.
