Serge Ibaka: 'I will be ready for game four of Western Conference finals'

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Serge Ibaka has insisted that he will play in game four of the Western Conference finals on Tuesday night.

Ibaka made an unexpected return from a calf injury on Sunday to help the Thunder beat the San Antonio Spurs for their first victory of the series.

The 24-year-old was forced to miss a practice session on Monday as a precaution, but he is confident of making an even greater impact as Oklahoma aim to make it 2-2 in game four.

"The good news is I'm not feeling worse, so that's good," Ibaka told members of the media. "I'm sure every day I'm going to feel better every day, but I'm not expecting to feel much better yet tomorrow.

"One thing I know, I expect to do a better job."

Ibaka was seen limping on a number of occasions in game three after he was originally ruled out for the rest of the season with the injury.
