Plays 10 minutes in loss Kornet recorded zero points (0-1 FG) and two rebounds in 10 minutes during Saturday's 94-90 loss to the Knicks in Game 5 of the NBA Finals.
Impact Kornet saw increased burn in Game 5, though he failed to make much of an impact. The big man appeared in 68 regular-season games (25 starts) during his first season with the Spurs, averaging 6.5 points, 6.1 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.0 blocks in 21.0 minutes per showing. The 30-year-old shot 64.3 percent from the field and has topped the 60.0 percent mark in each of the last four seasons.

Available for Game 5 Kornet (illness) is available for Saturday's Game 5 of the NBA Finals against the Knicks, NBA reporter Matthew Tynan reports.
Impact Kornet's status was up in the air due to an illness, but he'll ultimately shed the questionable tag and suit up for Saturday's must-win matchup. The backup big man has had a minimal impact through the first four games of the series, averaging 0.8 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 7.8 minutes per contest.
JUNE 13 • ROTOWIRE
Iffy for Game 5 Kornet (illness) is questionable for Saturday's Game 5 of the NBA Finals against the Knicks, Raul Dominguez Jr. of the Associated Press reports.
Impact Kornet is under the weather and may be held out of Saturday's do-or-die matchup. The veteran big man's absence wouldn't cause any significant waves in the rotation, though Victor Wembanyama and Carter Bryant could pick up a few extra minutes.
