Dylan Harper injury update: Why Spurs rookie left Game 2 vs. Thunder
Dylan Harper left Game 2 of the Western Conference finals after getting tangled up with Chet Holmgren.
Dylan Harper is out of Game 2 of the Western Conference finals after leaving the matchup in the third quarter on Wednesday, May 20. The San Antonio Spurs rookie was shown on the NBC broadcast walking into the locker room after he fell to the court while wrestling a rebound from Chet Holmgren, who was called for a foul on the play, and then went to the locker room. He trotted out of the tunnel, NBC reported, because someone thought the Spurs were in the bonus and he was needed to shoot free throws.
But he was redirected back to the locker room for further evaluation and never returned. Dylan Harper wants to get back on the court, but the Spurs' staff tells him to get back towards the locker room. https://t.

He grabbed his right hamstring and grimaced in pain. Dylan Harper has gone to the locker room after grabbing his right hamstring @ProFootballDoc pic. twitter.
