Parker has already practiced with the team on Wednesday and is set to do the same again. These are focusing on his fitness, with the Spurs hoping the former All-Star can get back to 100% soon. 

Despite being cleared by the medical staff in September, the Spurs have taken their usual cautious approach with an injury, and haven't set a timetable for his return. The initial estimation was January, but this could be even sooner if the rehab process stays on track.
