Keldon Johnson

SAS Forward-Guard #3

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Keldon Johnson tallied 18 points (6-of-11 FGs, 4-of-6 FTs), four rebounds, four assists, one steal and two three-pointers in Friday’s win over the Warriors.

Johnson’s scoring average has dropped considerably after he averaged 13.2 points per game and won NBA Sixth Man of the Year last season. The Spurs forward entered Friday averaging 8.0 points per game on 44.6 percent shooting. Given those numbers, Johnson needed a night like Friday, even if he scored nine of his points in the fourth quarter of a game the Spurs won by 38. Johnson is rostered in eight percent of Yahoo leagues, a fair percentage given the lackluster production.
Victor Wembanyama

SAS Forward-Center #1

Victor Wembanyama accounted for 12 points (5-of-11 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), 12 rebounds, six assists, one steal and two blocks in Friday’s win over the Warriors.

The final stat line may not show it, but Wembanyama was dominant in his 21 minutes. As has been the case on many occasions, the Warriors had little interest in challenging the Spurs’ center in the paint. Offensively, he took a back seat to Stephon Castle, who dropped in a season-high 32 points. The Spurs built a large enough lead to rest Wembanyama for the entire fourth quarter, which usually doesn’t happen in NBA Cup games since point differential is a tiebreaker. San Antonio won by 38, and it would have been worse if Wemby and the other starters had played more.
Stephon Castle

SAS Guard #5

Stephon Castle recorded 32 points (12-of-18 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), five rebounds, six assists, one block and five three-pointers in Friday’s win over the Warriors.

The Spurs jumped the Stephen Curry-less Warriors immediately, scoring the game’s first 10 points. And Castle led the way, scoring 13 first-quarter points on 5-of-7 shooting. He had one less point than the Warriors did as a team in the period and scored 18 in the first half. Castle shot confidently, and the approach paid off as he finished with his first 30-point game of the season. The Spurs play one more game this week, as they visit the struggling Jazz on Sunday.
Devin Vassell

SAS Guard-Forward #24

Devin Vassell (groin) finished Friday’s win over the Warriors with seven points (3-of-6 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), two rebounds and two assists.

Vassell returned to the Spurs’ lineup after a two-game absence. While the Spurs did not place him under a minutes restriction, Friday’s game handled that for them. Vassell played 23 minutes, checking out for good with a little over four minutes left in the third quarter. He’ll look to do a bit more in Sunday’s game against the Jazz, but given Utah’s struggles, that one could get out of hand, too.
Devin Vassell

SAS Guard-Forward #24

De’Aaron Fox, Stephon Castle, Dylan Harper, Devin Vassell and Victor Wembanyama will start Friday’s game against the Warriors.

After a two-game absence, Vassell is available for Friday’s game. His return means that Julian Champagnie will come off the bench.
Devin Vassell

SAS Guard-Forward #24

Devin Vassell (groin) is available for Friday’s game against the Warriors.

Vassell is set to return after missing the last two games with a groin injury. Julian Champagnie will likely head back to the bench with De’Aaron Fox (hip) also available.
De'Aaron Fox

SAS Guard #4

De’Aaron Fox (hip) is available for Friday’s game against the Warriors.

Initially questionable for Friday’s game, Fox is now good to go. He’ll occupy his usual place in the Spurs’ starting lineup.
Devin Vassell

SAS Guard-Forward #24

Devin Vassell (groin) is questionable to play against the Warriors on Friday.

Vassell could be back following a two-game absence. Julian Champagnie has been starting in his place and could continue to start, depending on the status of both Vassell and De’Aaron Fox, who is also questionable.
De'Aaron Fox

SAS Guard #4

De’Aaron Fox (hip) is questionable to play against the Warriors on Friday.

Fox could end up missing a game for the first time this season. If that happens, Dylan Harper and Stephon Castle would likely see a bump in usage. Devin Vassell has been sidelined but is questionable as well. If he returns and Fox is out, Julian Champagnie will continue to start. If both are out, Keldon Johnson or Carter Bryant could enter the starting lineup.
Dylan Harper

SAS Guard #2

Dylan Harper finished Wednesday’s win over the Bulls with 18 points (7-of-18 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), six rebounds, 10 assists, four steals, one block and two three-pointers.

With his father Ron, who won three NBA titles with the Bulls in the mid-90s, in attendance, Harper had another solid showing on Wednesday. The second-year guard recorded his first career double-double, dishing out 10 assists and scoring 18 points. While Harper’s field-goal percentage left a bit to be desired, he didn’t commit a turnover in his 36 minutes. Closing in on top-50 value in nine-cat formats, Harper is currently outperforming his ADP (80).
