Vassell (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against Utah. Vassell's next opportunity to take the court comes Saturday versus Golden State as he continues battling left knee soreness. The 24-year-old has dealt with left knee injuries in the past, so his progression should be closely monitored.
Vassell (knee) is out for Tuesday's game versus the Thunder, Nick Gallo of the Thunder's official site reports. Vassell will miss his second straight contest Tuesday after being downgraded from questionable to out with left knee soreness. The 24-year-old guard's next chance to suit up is Thursday's matchup with Utah.
Vassell is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Thunder with left knee soreness, independent NBA writer Matthew Tynan reports. Vassell missed the second leg of San Antonio's back-to-back Saturday against Dallas for rest purposes, so it's not a good sign that he's now dealing with left knee soreness. The Spurs usually tread very carefully, and Vassell's late addition to the injury report is a worrying sign. If he can't go, players such as Stephon Castle, Tre Jones and Malaki Branham could be more involved.
Vassell (foot) is available for Tuesday's game against the Thunder. After missing Saturday's game against Dallas for the second leg of a back-to-back set, Vassell is no longer showing up on the injury report. With Victor Wembanyama (knee) listed as doubtful, Vassell could see a heavy bump in usage rate against the Thunder.
Vassell won't play in Saturday's game versus the Mavericks due to right foot injury management. Vassell will miss the second leg of San Antonio's back-to-back Saturday as the team opts to play it cautiously due to a foot injury that kept him sidelined at the beginning of the season. The 24-year-old guard should be able to suit up for Tuesday's matchup with Oklahoma City.
Interim coach Mitch Johnson said Vassell will come off the bench during Monday's game against the Kings, Tom Orsborn of the San Antonio Express-News reports. After missing time while working his way back from foot surgery, Vassell made his season debut versus Utah on Saturday, posting 21 points (8-13 FG), two assists and one rebound in 22 minutes off the bench. Johnson said the team will be "conservative" during Vassell's ramp-up period, so it may be a while before he's back to playing 30-plus minutes as a starter.
Vassell contributed 21 points (8-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound and two assists in 22 minutes during Saturday's 111-110 loss to the Jazz. Vassell certainly didn't look like someone making his 2024-25 season debut given his success on the offensive end. He led the bench in scoring by knocking down 61.5 percent of his tries from the field and drilled three triples in a tightly contested loss. Vassell was on a minutes restriction Saturday and could shoulder a similar workload over the next few games until the team feels comfortable enough to set him loose.
Interim coach Mitch Johnson said Vassell (foot) will play in Saturday's game versus the Jazz but will come off the bench while on a minutes restriction, independent NBA writer Matthew Tynan reports. Vassell is set to make his season debut Saturday after missing the first nine games of the 2024-25 campaign while recovering from left foot surgery. However, Vassell should play fewer than his average of 33.1 minutes per contest from last season and will be eased back into San Antonio's rotation.
Vassell (foot) will make his 2024-25 debut Saturday against the Trail Blazers, Shams Charania of ESPN reports. Vassell was cleared for all basketball activities earlier in the day, and it's since been confirmed that he'll suit up for Saturday's game after missing the first few weeks of the year while on the mend from offseason foot surgery. It remains to be seen whether the Florida State product's playing time will be restricted in his first few games back, though it certainly wouldn't be a surprise to see San Antonio monitor Vassell closely.
