Victor Wembanyama

SAS Forward-Center #1

ESPN’s Shams Charania reports Victor Wembanyama suffered a slight hyperextension in his left knee, though initial tests showed no major injury.

Exhale. While a slight hyperextension in the knee doesn’t sound good, the meat of Charania’s reporting here is that Wembanyama avoided a major injury. That bodes well for the rest of the season, though it’s unclear if Wembanyama will have to miss a game or two later this week. The Spurs have back-to-back games with the Pacers and Trail Blazers on Friday and Saturday.
De'Aaron Fox

SAS Guard #4

De’Aaron Fox had 25 points (11-of-21 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), one rebound, seven assists, three steals and one three-pointer against the Knicks on Wednesday.

Fox bounced back after scoring only 14 points in the loss to the Cavaliers Monday to drop 25 points in the win over the Knicks Wednesday. The 28-year-old point guard once again struggled from behind the three-point line. Over the last two games combined, Fox is 2-of-14 from behind the three-point line. A 38 percent three-point shooter this year, he’ll look to add some threes to his otherwise excellent stat line against the Pacers Friday.
Julian Champagnie

SAS Forward #30

Julian Champagnie had 36 points (11-of-17 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), six rebounds, one block and 11 three-pointers against the Knicks on Wednesday.

Champagnie dropped a career-high 36 points in this one. The 24-year-old small forward’s 11 three-pointers are the second-most anyone has had in a game this year, trailing only Stephen Curry with 12, and a Spurs franchise record. On a night when the Spurs trailed by nine entering the fourth quarter and lost Victor Wembanyama to injury not even two minutes into the fourth quarter, Champagnie kept the Spurs afloat and led the late comeback. With Devin Vassell (adductor) set to miss a few games, Champagnie is rewarding managers that chose to stream him.
Victor Wembanyama

SAS Forward-Center #1

Victor Wembanyama had 31 points (10-of-12 FGs, 9-of-10 FTs), 13 rebounds, one assist, one block and two three-pointers in the Spurs’ 134-132 win over the Knicks on Wednesday.

Wembanyama landed awkwardly gathering a rebound with about 10 minutes left in the fourth quarter. The 21-year-old center left the game and didn’t return. The Spurs were already in the middle of a fourth quarter comeback, but prior to leaving Wembanyama was highly efficient with 31 points on 12 field goal attempts. We’ll have an update on Wembanyama’s health when more information is available. The Spurs have back-to-back games against the Pacers and Trail Blazers later this week.
Stephon Castle

SAS Guard #5

Stephon Castle (thumb) is available to play against the Knicks on Wednesday.

After initially being listed as questionable, Castle will be good to go for the rematch of the NBA Cup Final. With Devin Vassell (adductor) sidelined for at least the next couple of games, Castle should see a boost in usage during that stretch.
Julian Champagnie

SAS Forward #30

Julian Champagnie will start in place of Devin Vassell against the Knicks on Wednesday.

Spurs coach Mitch Johnson said that Vassell will likely be out “more than a game or two.” It’s safe to assume that Champagnie will start multuple games, which gives him upside as a streaming option, especially if Stephon Castle (thumb) ends up missing this game.
Stephon Castle

SAS Guard #5

Stephon Castle (thumb) is questionable to play against the Knicks on Wednesday.

Castle has a chance to miss a game for the first time in nearly a month. In his absence, Dylan Harper should start in his place. Harper has yet to start an NBA game, but with Devin Vassell (adductor) sidelined, Harper will have a chance to make his first start.
Devin Vassell

SAS Guard-Forward #24

Devin Vassell (adductor) is out for Wednesday’s game against the Knicks.

Vassell is dealing with a strained left adductor, so this may not be the only game that he misses. With their starting guard/forward sidelined for the first time this season, the Spurs will likely turn to Julian Champagnie or Dylan Harper to fill the void in the starting lineup. While Harper offers a higher ceiling in category leagues, Champagnie has a safer floor.
Victor Wembanyama

SAS Forward-Center #1

Victor Wembanyama had 26 points (7-of-16 FGs, 10-of-12 FTs), 14 rebounds, three assists, one steal, one block and two three-pointers against the Cavaliers on Monday.

Wembanyama started things off with some excitement in the first quarter as he slammed home an alley-oop from Stephon Castle that came off the backboard. The 21-year-old center was efficient with 26 points and 14 rebounds in 27 minutes, but wasn’t much of a factor on the defensive end with one block after recording five blocks in his last game. The Spurs will take on the Knicks Wednesday in the second game of a four-game week.
De'Aaron Fox

SAS Guard #4

De’Aaron Fox, Stephon Castle, Devin Vassell, Harrison Barnes and Victor Wembanyama will start Monday’s game against the Cavaliers.

Fox is back after missing Saturday’s loss to the Jazz. His return means that Julian Champagnie will head to the bench, lowering his fantasy ceiling. San Antonio’s other four starters are unchanged.
