Zach Collins Uncertain To Play On Thursday

San Antonio Spurs center Zach Collins (knee) is questionable heading into Thursday night's matchup against the Utah Jazz. Collins is dealing with left knee tendinitis but hasn't missed a game yet this season. The 27-year-old has made two straight starts filling in for Victor Wembanyama who will miss his third straight game on Thursday. Collins has notched 20 and 12 points in his two starts while grabbing six and seven boards. If active, fantasy managers should expect Collins to be in double-digits again. If he's not active, expect Charles Bassey to get the start.

Victor Wembanyama Out Again On Thursday

San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama (knee) remains out for Thursday's game against the Utah Jazz. The 20-year-old has a right knee contusion, so he'll miss his third-straight game. Zach Collins (knee) has been starting in his place, most recently logging 12 points, seven boards, one steal, and one block in the NBA Cup win over the Thunder. But with Collins questionable for Thursday's meeting, Sandro Mamukelashvili could be worth streaming if he enters the starting lineup. Mamukelashvili would also be a popular DFS value option if Collins is out.

Devin Vassell Listed As Questionable On Tuesday

According to independent NBA writer Matthew Tynan, San Antonio Spurs guard Devin Vassell (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's game versus the Thunder due to left knee soreness. Vassell didn't play the second half of San Antonio's back-to-back Saturday against Dallas for rest purposes. However, the 24-year-old's late addition to the injury could cause some concern. If Vassell cannot suit up, Stephon Castle, Malaki Branham, and Tre Jones could see an uptick in minutes on the court.

Victor Wembanyama Unavailable On Tuesday

According to independent NBA writer Matthew Tynan, San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's matchup with the Oklahoma City Thunder. Wembanyama being sidelined was not surprising after he was listed as doubtful on the Spurs injury report on Monday. With the 20-year-old out, Zach Collins will likely start. During Collins' last outing, he registered 20 points, six rebounds, three blocks, and one steal across 26 minutes against the Mavs on Saturday.

Victor Wembanyama Doubtful Against OKC On Tuesday

San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama (knee) is doubtful for Tuesday's game against OKC. The 20-year-old has a bruised right knee, keeping him off the floor for Saturday's loss to the Dallas Mavericks. Zach Collins got the start in his place, finishing with 20 points, six rebounds, and three blocks. Unfortunately, he shot a rough 0-for-5 from behind the arc. But with Wembanyama trending toward missing another game, Collins should be considered a starting fantasy option. There's also a good chance he'll turn his shooting woes around.

Victor Wembanyama Ruled Out On Saturday Night

San Antonio Spurs forward Victor Wembanyama (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday night's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Wembanyama is dealing with a right knee contusion and will be resting on the second night of a back-to-back for San Antonio. Wembanyama has yet to miss a game this season, averaging 22.7 PPG, 10.5 RPG and 3.7 blocks per game. His presence will certainly be missed by the Spurs on both ends of the court. Zach Collins will be getting the start in Wemby's place. Collins is averaging 5.6 PPG and 3.3 RPG this season. Collins did get 29 starts last season for San Antonio and averaged 14.8 PPG and 5.9 RPG as a starter. Fantasy managers should get Collins into their starting lineup while expecting marginal production. DFS managers willing to take a flyer on a cheap option may want to look at adding Collins and hoping for a big game.

Devin Vassell Out, Resting On Second Night Of Back-To-Back

San Antonio Spurs guard Devin Vassell (foot) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. The Spurs are managing Vassell's recovery from foot surgery with it being the second night of a back-to-back. The 24-year-old missed the first nine games of the season but has been able to play in the last four, averaging 16.3 PPG off the bench. Fantasy managers shouldn't worry much about his absence, especially considering the Spurs are being proactive for his health. Expect him to return in the Spurs' next game on Tuesday against the Oklahoma City Thunder. In the meantime, expect guys like Malaki Branham and Keldon Johnson to get more volume off the bench tonight.

Victor Wembanyama Uncertain To Play Versus Dallas

San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game in Dallas. The 20-year-old has had an MVP-caliber season, most recently amassing 28 points, 14 rebounds, five assists, and two blocks in Friday's Emirates NBA Cup loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. With Devin Vassell (foot) getting the night off, fantasy managers could see an uptick in statistical contributions from guys like Stephon Castle, Zach Collins, Keldon Johnson, and Julian Champagnie.

Malaki Branham Questionable Against Kings

San Antonio Spurs guard Malaki Branham (ankle) is considered questionable again on Monday for their game against the Sacramento Kings. The former first-round pick was unable to play in their last contest on Saturday due to the same ankle issue, so it's unclear if he'll be able to suit up or not. Tre Jones (ankle) remains sidelined as well, so if Branham can't give it a go, Stephon Castle and Devin Vassell will see some heavy minutes while Blake Wesley gets some opportunities too.

Devin Vassell Expected To Return On Saturday

San Antonio Spurs guard Devin Vassell (foot) is probable heading into Saturday's game against the Utah Jazz. The 24-year-old is coming off a solid season, averaging a career-high 19.5 points in 68 games. Unfortunately, he suffered a stress fracture late in March and has been working his way back since. Without question, Vassell has untapped potential. While there's an excellent chance he'll be even more productive during the 2024-25 campaign, it could take him a few weeks to get back up to speed. It's unknown if Vassell will come off the bench or start in his first game back, whenever that will be. But he will likely see limited minutes, meaning Stephon Castle, coming off a 14-point, six-assist showing, could see at least a few more starts.

Malaki Branham On The Injury Report For Saturday

San Antonio Spurs guard Malaki Branham (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's contest versus the Utah Jazz. The 2022 No. 20 overall pick recorded a season-high 17 points in Thursday's win over the Portland Trail Blazers. But he tweaked his ankle late in the game and is now questionable against a Jazz team with only one victory during the 2024-25 campaign. Branham has played relatively well this season. However, he's not a consistent fantasy producer, and even if he plays, his outlook won't be as favorable if Devin Vassell (foot) is back on the floor.

Devin Vassell Could Make Season Debut On Saturday

San Antonio Spurs forward Devin Vassell (foot) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Vassell has yet to play this season while he recovers from foot surgery. The organization was hopeful he'd return during the first week of November, but that didn't happen. Although, there's hope that Vassell could make his season debut against the Utah Jazz on Saturday. Fantasy managers should expect Vassell to be limited during his first few games. However, Vassell should be a solid fantasy asset once he's back to full health. Stephon Castle should take a hit in playing time once Vassell is ready to go again.

Jeremy Sochan To Undergo Surgery

San Antonio Spurs forward Jeremy Sochan (thumb) is set to undergo surgery after suffering an injury during Monday's loss to the Los Angeles Clippers. Sochan suffered a fractured left thumb during the first half of Monday's contest. The Spurs haven't given a timetable for his return, but he's expected to miss an extended period of time after having surgery. Stephon Castle and Julian Champagnie figure to both see extended run with Sochan sidelined. Champagnie finished with 21 points and five rebounds over 38 minutes on Monday. Both are possible streaming options with the Spurs banged up right now. Keldon Johnson could also see more run, but is already playing nearly 30 minutes per game.

Devin Vassell To Remain On The Shelf During Road Trip

San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Devin Vassell (foot) is not expected to join the team for Wednesday's visit to Houston. Interim head coach Mitch Johnson has said he doesn't believe Vassell will be ready for Wednesday's game. However, according to Johnson, Vassell is "ramping up" and could be back "soon." Vassell is recovering from foot surgery and hasn't yet featured for the Spurs this season. Julian Champagnie is filling in for him in the starting lineup. He will lose a big chunk of fantasy value when Vassell returns.

Jeremy Sochan Suffers Thumb Injury On Monday

San Antonio Spurs forward Jeremy Sochan exited Monday's contest against the Clippers with a thumb injury. He was limited to four points and three rebounds in 12 minutes. Stephon Castle replaced Sochan in the starting unit for the second half. The rookie guard recorded 11 points and four rebounds in 20 minutes of action. His fantasy value could get a boost if Sochan is out for Wednesday's meeting with Houston. Keldon Johnson could be another guy to benefit, although he has already seen a good amount of action off the bench.

Tre Jones Could Miss A Couple Weeks

San Antonio Spurs guard Tre Jones (ankle) suffered a right ankle sprain during the team's season opener and has been ruled out for both games against the Houston Rockets. Over the weekend, head coach Gregg Popovich said that Jones could be out for as long as two weeks. Stephon Castle will likely see some added minutes while Chris Paul should be in the game more often too. With Devin Vassell (foot) still out, Malakhi Branham could see some opportunities as well.

Spurs Trade For Then Waive Jalen McDaniels

The San Antonio Spurs have traded for Jalen McDaniels and a second-round pick from the Sacramento Kings, according to Shams Charania of ESPN. The Spurs then waived McDaniels to maintain flexibility with their roster and cap space down the road. This move helped the Spurs gain some more draft capital and also allowed the Kings to navigate through some salary and luxury tax hoops after acquiring DeMar DeRozan. McDaniels will now look to latch on to another roster before the regular season kicks off.

Chris Paul  • PG  •  Spurs

Chris Paul Suiting Up Versus Orlando On Wednesday

Per Michael C. Wright of ESPN, San Antonio Spurs point guard Chris Paul will make his preseason debut on Wednesday after signing a one-year, $11 million contract with the team in the offseason. Paul's production has dipped significantly after being in the league for almost 20 years. He played in 58 games for Golden State in last year's campaign, averaging 9.2 points, 6.8 assists, and 1.2 steals. The 39-year-old's presence will be essential for the development of center Victor Wembanyama and the other young players on the team.

Zach Collins Unavailable Wednesday Against Orlando

According to ESPN's Michael C. Wright, San Antonio Spurs center Zach Collins (shoulder) will not play in the team's preseason game against the Magic on Wednesday. Despite not suiting up in the preseason, the 26-year-old has been participating in 5-on-5 drills during training camp after having shoulder surgery in April. Last season, Collins averaged 11.2 points, 5.4 rebounds, 2.8 assists, and 0.8 blocks in 69 regular season contests. Saturday, he has another chance to make his preseason debut against Utah.

Keldon Johnson  • SF  •  Spurs

Keldon Johnson Healthy Heading Into 2024 Season

San Antonio Spurs guard Keldon Johnson (foot) says that he is healthy and in shape heading into the start of next season. Johnson missed the final four games of the regular season in 2023 due to a foot sprain. The 24-year-old is heading into his sixth season and is now considered a veteran on this rebuilding roster. Johnson saw a regression in some stats last season, but still remains a reliable contributor on this roster. The Spurs added Harrison Barnes via trade this offseason, so Johnson will likely head to a bench role to start the season. Despite that, Johnson should still have a significant role as he averaged nearly 30 minutes per game over the course of his career. Fantasy managers should consider Johnson healthy as he looks ready to contribute at the beginning of the season.
