Hornets' Chandler hurts toe

Posted: Wed May 14 1:28 AM

New Orleans, LA (Sports Network) - New Orleans Hornets center Tyson Chandler hurt a toe on his left foot in the fourth quarter of Tuesday's 101-79 playoff win over San Antonio.

The Hornets, who grabbed a 3-2 lead in the best-of-seven Western Conference semifinal series, can advance with a victory on Thursday in San Antonio.

Chandler had to be helped to the bench with 8:47 left in the fourth quarter.

Also, New Orleans forward David West played through a sore back to post career playoff-highs of 38 points and 14 rebounds on Tuesday.

"Both are sore," Hornets coach Byron Scott said. "Both are a little beat up. We'll get a chance tomorrow to go through some things as far as looking at the tape and then get on the flight. The good thing about both of them is that they're young. Hopefully, they will be ready Thursday. It's Tyson’s toe and David's back. I think that (West's injury) it's pretty serious. Is it going to keep him out of Game 6? Probably not. We just need to make sure that we get some treatment on there, get some rest, and get ready for Thursday."
