It's been a long NBA season for the Portland Trail Blazers and San Antonio Spurs and the injuries are starting to pile up ... more than we've ever seen before.

For tonight's matchup in Austin, 23(!!!) players are listed on the injury report in some capacity, nine Spurs and 14 Blazers.

Here's a look at the full report ...

San Antonio Spurs

  • Charles Bassey (OUT- patella)
  • Khem Birch (OUT - knee)
  • Devonte' Graham (OUT - adductor)
  • Doug McDermott (OUT - ankle)
  • Jeremy Sochan (OUT - knee)
  • Devin Vassell (OUT - knee)
  • Keldon Johnson (QUESTIONABLE - foot)
  • Romeo Langford (QUESTIONABLE - adductor)
  • Zach Collins (PROBABLE - finger)

Portland Trail Blazers

  • Ibou Badji (OUT - knee)
  • Jerami Grant (OUT - quad)
  • Keon Johnson (OUT - finger)
  • Damian Lillard (OUT - calf)
  • Nassir Little (OUT - ankle)
  • Jusuf Nurkic (OUT - knee)
  • Anfernee Simons (OUT - foot)
  • Justise Winslow (OUT - ankle)
  • Matisse Thybulle (DOUBTFUL - knee)
  • Cam Reddish (QUESTIONABLE - lumbar)
  • Shaedon Sharpe (QUESTIONABLE - knee)
  • Trendon Watford (QUESTIONABLE - ankle)
  • Drew Eubanks (PROBABLE - thoracic)
  • Kevin Knox ll (PROBABLE - knee)

With both teams missing the playoffs this season, tonight's game could be seen as the ultimate "tank-off" between two squads who aren't putting a ton of emphasis on the final result. Or it could also be a case of a really bad sting from the mighty injury bug.
