De'Aaron Fox Struggles From the Field Thursday

San Antonio Spurs guard De'Aaron Fox was limited to five points, five rebounds, and seven assists in Thursday's 118-91 Game 6 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. He shot 1-for-9 from the field and missed all three attempts from deep, but San Antonio still forced Game 7 behind a 20-0 third-quarter run and a 52-42 rebounding edge. Fox has not looked fully settled as a scorer in this series, yet the playmaking volume remains useful while the Spurs lean on Victor Wembanyama and their younger guards to carry more of the offense. Fox's fantasy line will need better efficiency to match his usual ceiling in Saturday's elimination game.

Stephon Castle Controls the Spurs Offense in Game 6 Win

San Antonio Spurs guard Stephon Castle racked up 17 points (5-for-10 FGs, 7-for-8 FTs), nine assists, five rebounds, one steal, and just one turnover in Thursday's 118-91 Game 6 win over the Thunder. The reigning Rookie of the Year notched his eighth 15/5/5 game of the postseason, behind only Magic Johnson and Larry Bird among rookies and sophomores in a single playoff run. The bigger development is the ball security: Castle had 20 turnovers across the series' first two games before settling down. That control, layered on his scoring and playmaking, is what gives him a dependable multi-category floor the rest of this run.

Dylan Harper Finds His Rhythm Thursday

San Antonio Spurs guard Dylan Harper recorded 18 points, six rebounds, four assists, and two three-pointers in Thursday's 118-91 Game 6 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. The 20-year-old rookie shot 6-for-9 from the field and 4-for-4 at the free-throw line while helping San Antonio force Game 7. After averaging only 6.0 points over the previous three games, Harper delivered a timely response in an elimination spot. He still works off the bench, but the efficient scoring and secondary playmaking keep him firmly involved in San Antonio's postseason rotation.

Victor Wembanyama Drops 28 to Force a Winner-Take-All Game 7

San Antonio Spurs forward/center Victor Wembanyama posted 28 points (10-for-21 FGs, 4-for-4 FTs), 10 rebounds, two assists, two steals, three blocks, and four 3-pointers in Thursday's 118-91 Game 6 rout of the Thunder. The 7-foot-4 star opened with a pair of triples and an early block on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander as San Antonio led wire-to-wire, forcing a winner-take-all Game 7 on Saturday in Oklahoma City. He joined David Robinson and Tim Duncan as the only Spurs with five 25-point, 10-rebound games in a single postseason. Filling all five categories anchors his fantasy value, and with a Finals berth at stake, expect another massive workload Saturday.

NBA Upgrades Mason Plumlee's Foul to a Flagrant 1

The NBA has upgraded San Antonio Spurs center Mason Plumlee's late-game foul on Oklahoma City Thunder guard Jared McCain to a Flagrant 1 after league review, the NBA Officials account announced Wednesday. With 1:39 left in the fourth quarter of Tuesday's 127-114 Thunder win, Plumlee stepped up to show on a screen and drove an elbow into McCain's back as the second-year guard trailed ball-handler Alex Caruso on an offensive set. The foul was called common on the floor. No suspension was issued. McCain, who was making his first playoff start with Jalen Williams (hamstring) and Ajay Mitchell (calf) sidelined, finished with 20 points, three rebounds, and a 7-for-19 mark from the field, with 18 of those points coming in the second half. Bismack Biyombo also delivered a hard foul on McCain with 46 seconds remaining, though that one was not upgraded. With the Thunder up 3-2 in the series, McCain is expected to keep the starting role in Game 6 on Thursday in San Antonio, and the chippiness of Game 5's closing minutes adds an extra layer to a road closeout attempt.

Victor Wembanyama Receives Warning From NBA

According to ESPN's Shams Charania, San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama received a warning from the NBA for violating media access rules after he did not speak with reporters following Tuesday's Game 5 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder. The league did not announce a fine or suspension, so there is no immediate fantasy fallout for Game 6. The 22-year-old struggled in the 127-114 defeat, finishing with 20 points on 4-for-15 shooting, six rebounds, one assist, two steals, and three blocks. Wembanyama still leads the Spurs this postseason in points, rebounds, and blocks, keeping him locked into a massive workload as San Antonio faces elimination Thursday.

De'Aaron Fox Limited to Nine Points in Game 5 Loss

San Antonio Spurs point guard De'Aaron Fox had a miserable time in Game 5 against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday, finishing a 127-114 loss with nine points on a 4-for-15 effort from the field. He missed all four attempts from three-point range. While he struggled to score, Fox did a good job in other areas, tallying four rebounds, nine assists, and three steals with only one turnover in 33 minutes. Fox is playing through an ankle injury in the playoffs, which could be why he has made only 32.1% of his field-goal attempts over the last two games. An improvement from Fox would significantly boost San Antonio's chances in Thursday's elimination game.

Julian Champagnie Notches 22 Points With Four Triples Tuesday

San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Julian Champagnie had the best postseason outing of his career on Tuesday night, racking up 22 points in a 127-114 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals. He came out red-hot, scoring 13 first-quarter points. Champagnie finished 4-for-8 from downtown and had an 8-for-15 overall record from the field. He was the team's second-leading scorer behind Stephon Castle and led the Spurs with eight rebounds. The 24-year-old also had active hands on the defensive end, snagging three steals. Following his two-point dud in Game 4, Champagnie will have renewed confidence after Tuesday night. But he has rarely strung together two strong performances in the playoffs, making him a risky fantasy option.

Stephon Castle Leads Spurs in Scoring Tuesday Night

San Antonio Spurs guard Stephon Castle put up a team-high 24 points in Tuesday's 127-114 Game 5 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder, finishing 7-for-11 from the floor and 7-for-8 at the charity stripe. Castle, who was 3-for-5 with the three-ball, also notched five rebounds, six assists, and three steals. At times, Castle has struggled with turnovers during his first career playoff run, but his overall play has been solid. Through five outings in the Western Conference Finals, Castle has averaged 18.6 points, 4.8 rebounds, 7.6 assists, and 1.4 steals. He will likely face a heavy workload on Thursday night as the Spurs try to extend the series to seven games.

Victor Wembanyama Struggles in Game 5 Loss to Thunder

San Antonio Spurs forward/center Victor Wembanyama had a disappointing outing in Game 5 against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday night, settling for 20 points, six rebounds, one assist, two steals, and three blocks in a 127-114 road loss. He was perfect on 12 attempts at the line but finished only 4-for-15 from the field. Wembanyama's bad night at the office included a 0-for-5 effort from downtown. The 2026 Defensive Player of the Year will be the first to admit he wasn't at his best on Tuesday night and should be determined to rebound in Thursday's Game 6.

Stephon Castle Hands Out Six Assists in Game 4 Win

San Antonio Spurs guard Stephon Castle finished Sunday's Game 4 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder with 13 points, three rebounds, six assists, one steal, one block, and one three-pointer. The 21-year-old sophomore shot 5-for-11 from the field and committed only one turnover, giving San Antonio a cleaner secondary ball-handling night after his early-series miscues. Victor Wembanyama carried the scoring load with 33 points, but Castle's full line mattered in a 103-82 win that tied the Western Conference Finals at 2-2. His assists and defensive stats continue to give him a useful playoff floor even when he is not a primary scoring option.

Devin Vassell Tallies 13 Points in Game 4 Win

San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Devin Vassell tallied 13 points, six rebounds, three assists, one steal, and one block in Sunday's 103-82 Game 4 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. The 25-year-old was efficient with his opportunities, going 3-for-7 from the field, including two three-pointers, and 5-for-6 at the free-throw line. Vassell provided reliable secondary production alongside Victor Wembanyama, who dominated with 33 points. With De'Aaron Fox and Stephon Castle also commanding the backcourt, Vassell's two-way consistency continues to be a staple for San Antonio. He averages 13.9 points per game this season and will look to maintain his steady impact on the wing as the Western Conference finals shift back to Oklahoma City for Game 5.

De'Aaron Fox Records Double-Double as Spurs Even Series

San Antonio Spurs guard De'Aaron Fox recorded 12 points, 10 rebounds, five assists, one steal, one block, and one three-pointer in Sunday's 103-82 Game 4 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. The 28-year-old struggled to find his scoring rhythm, finishing 5-for-13 from the field, but his work on the glass helped San Antonio even the Western Conference Finals at 2-2. Fox has now logged two full outings since returning from his ankle issue, and while the scoring ceiling has been muted, his rebounds, assists, and defensive stats are keeping his fantasy profile useful in playoff formats.

Victor Wembanyama Sets Tone Early as Spurs Force a Pivotal Game 5

San Antonio Spurs forward/center Victor Wembanyama delivered 33 points, eight rebounds, five assists, and three blocks on Sunday, pacing the Spurs to a 103-82 Game 4 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder and evening the Western Conference Finals at 2-2. The former No. 1 overall pick attacked early, hitting a three-pointer on San Antonio's opening possession before adding alley-oop dunks against a Thunder interior that had slowed him in Games 2 and 3. He went 11-for-22 from the floor, eight-for-nine at the line, and three-for-seven from deep before spending most of the fourth quarter on the bench. Oklahoma City shot 33 percent from the field and committed 17 turnovers. With the series now heading to Oklahoma City for Game 5, Wembanyama enters as the most reliable fantasy asset in the building, averaging 22.2 points, 11.9 rebounds, and 4.0 blocks across 11 postseason outings.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Victor Wembanyama Lead All-NBA First Team

Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and San Antonio Spurs forward/center Victor Wembanyama headline the 2025-26 All-NBA First Team, which was announced on Sunday. They are joined by Nikola Jokic (Denver Nuggets), Luka Doncic (Los Angeles Lakers), and Cade Cunningham (Detroit Pistons). For Wembanyama, this marks his first All-NBA Team selection. He has been named to the All-Defensive Team twice. Before him, Kawhi Leonard was the last Spurs player named to the All-NBA First Team, earning the honor in 2016 and 2017.

De'Aaron Fox Doesn't "Feel Great" Entering Game 4

San Antonio Spurs point guard De'Aaron Fox (ankle) wasn't listed on the injury report for Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals against the Oklahoma City Thunder, but he continues to deal with an ankle sprain, Tom Orsborn of the San Antonio Express-News reports. "I'm the same as I was before the series started, but I'm able to play," Fox said after the morning shootaround. "I don't feel great, but I'm able to play." It's not ideal for fantasy managers to rely on Fox when he's not 100 percent healthy, but he delivered a strong performance in Game 3 despite his ankle injury. The two-time All-Star recorded 15 points, seven rebounds, six assists, and one steal in 31 minutes.

Dylan Harper Not on Injury Report for Game 4

San Antonio Spurs guard Dylan Harper (adductor) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Sunday's Game 4 against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The 20-year-old injured his right adductor in Game 2 and was tagged as questionable for Game 3 on the initial injury report. He was cleared to play before the game, logging 17 minutes off the bench. It was one of Harper's worst postseason outings, as he managed only six points with a 2-for-7 effort from the field. Harper has the potential to be much better on Sunday night. He has averaged 13.8 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.5 assists, and 1.4 steals in the playoffs.

De'Aaron Fox Off the Injury Report Ahead of Game 4

San Antonio Spurs point guard De'Aaron Fox (ankle) has not been listed on the injury report ahead of Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals against the Oklahoma City Thunder. This is a pleasant surprise after Fox missed the first two games of the series due to a right ankle sprain. He looked sharp in his return to action on Friday night in Game 3, picking up 15 points, seven rebounds, six assists, and one steal in 31 minutes. While it was a bit alarming to see Fox leave the game briefly after seemingly re-aggravating his injury, it apparently wasn't a major issue. Fox is poised for a busy night on Sunday as the Spurs try to even the series in front of their fans.

Devin Vassell Posts 20 Points in Game 3 Loss

San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Devin Vassell posted 20 points, seven rebounds, two assists, four steals, and three three-pointers in Friday's 123-108 Game 3 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder. The 25-year-old shot 6-for-12 from the field and 3-for-6 from deep while logging 36 minutes, giving San Antonio another useful two-way line despite falling behind 2-1 in the Western Conference Finals. Vassell has now scored 20-plus points in back-to-back games, and his perimeter shooting remains a key fantasy-friendly piece of San Antonio's offense as the Spurs try to even the series in Game 4.

De'Aaron Fox Struggles From Deep in Friday's Loss

San Antonio Spurs guard De'Aaron Fox recorded 15 points, seven rebounds, six assists, one steal, and one three-pointer in Friday's 123-108 Game 3 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder. The 28-year-old returned to the starting lineup after missing the first two games of the Western Conference Finals with an ankle sprain, logging 31 minutes in the loss. He shot 7-for-14 from the field but went just 1-for-6 from deep, so the balanced line was more encouraging than the scoring total. Fox's workload is the key takeaway for fantasy managers, although his perimeter lift remains worth watching in Game 4.
