76ers' Tiago Splitter: Probable Friday vs. Cavaliers

Splitter (calf) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Cavaliers, Brian Seltzer of Sixers.com reports.

Splitter's appearance on the injury report is likely just precautionary, as the center still has some limitations after missing most of the season with a strained right calf. While he figures to be available Friday, the 76ers' medical staff has recommended that Splitter only play three-to-four-minute bursts if he does see the floor. It may be a stretch to even expect him to see that much run, as Splitter looks like a clear third option on the depth chart at center behind Richaun Holmes and Shawn Long, even with Jahlil Okafor (knee) still out.
