Parker on verge of jumping up all time steals list

Found December 20, 2012 on Project Spurs: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Tony Parker
TEAMS: San Antonio Spurs

Tony Parker and his San Antonio Spurs tend to be a low key team who remain humble and don't gloat or want media attention, especially on individual accomplishments. There wasn't much commotion when he became the Spurs' all-time assists leader last year and if you're keeping tabs on all time steals in the franchise, it's hard to ignore Tony Parker is climbing up the ranks. Although he's not known for his defensive game, Parker (802) is two steals away from passing Mike Gale (803) and becoming 7th on the Spurs all time list in that accomplishment. Parker will get his shot at reaching this milestone this Friday when the Spurs take on the Hornets.
