We might see San Antonio Spurs point guard Tony Parker back out on the court sooner than initially expected.

While speaking with French publication LCI at an NBA 2K promotional event recently, Parker's Spurs teammate Danny Green revealed that the veteran floor general is ahead of schedule in his recovery from the quadriceps injury that he suffered late last season.

From Green, via Jeff Garcia of News 4 San Antonio:

"He obviously had a tough injury last year but he's recovering. He's a couple of months ahead of schedule... I don't want to leak anything but he might be playing a lot sooner than people think he's playing. He's been doing his rehab like a monster, like a maniac. He's been working out like a maniac and mentally he's really focused and trying to get his body healthy and get it right. You'll probably be seeing Tony playing a lot sooner than what most people expect him to be back by."

Parker suffered the injury during the fourth quarter of Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals against the Houston Rockets in May. He was initially expected to be sidelined until January, however if he is indeed far ahead of schedule, he might be back in action before the calendar switches over.
