Zach

Collins

Wembanyama is officially available for Saturday’s game. However, acting Spurs coach Mitch Johnson said the team will be “conservative” with Wemby’s minutes. Therefore, Zach Collins should not be considered an automatic “drop” where he’s being streamed.

Wemby has missed the Spurs’ last three games, but he is expected to be back in the lineup against the Warriors. That will return Zach Collins to his usual role off the bench, while Charles Bassey will likely be pushed out of the main rotation.

Wemby has missed San Antonio’s last three games, and Zach Collins has replaced him in the starting lineup. Collins’ streaming value takes a significant hit with Wembanyama on the court, while Charles Bassey may drop from the rotation entirely.

Collins drew a third straight start with Victor Wembanyama sidelined once again. He wasn’t quite as productive, though he only played 21 minutes in this one. It’s unclear if Wemby will be back in the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Warriors, but if he remains out, Collins should be worth streaming. It’s also worth noting that the Spurs have a back-to-back on Tuesday and Wednesday next week, so there is a chance that Wemby sits out one of those games, which would allow Collins to get another start. When he’s coming off the bench, he should be left on the waiver wire.

A reliable streaming option with Victor Wembanyama, Collins is also on the injury report for Thursday’s game. Charles Bassey and Sandro Mamukelashvili become more essential options within the Spurs rotation if Collins cannot play. In the case of Bassey, he’s worth a speculative add in deep leagues after tallying 12 points, eight rebounds, one steal, and two blocks in 21 minutes off the bench on Tuesday.

Wembanyama’s knee injury will cost him a second straight game. Zach Collins is still worth streaming for now, as he replaced the Spurs’ young superstar in the starting lineup against the Mavericks and will likely continue to do so until he returns.

Wemby sat out Saturday and is trending toward a second straight absence. Zach Collins should remain with the first unit until Wembanyama is ready to return. Collins finished with 20 points, six rebounds, a steal and three blocks in Saturday’s spot start, and he’s worth streaming as long as he’s in the starting lineup.

Collins stepped into the void left by Victor Wembanyama, who did not play on Saturday due to a right knee contusion. The Spurs’ backup center had a good night, leading the team in scoring and blocking three shots. Collins was 0-of-5 from beyond the arc, so a 20-point night could have been even better. He should be streamed whenever the Spurs are without Wembanyama.

Wembanyama injured his knee during Friday’s loss to the Lakers. He took a quick trip to the locker room during the fourth quarter but returned to action. His absence means Zach Collins will start and is worth streaming in deep leagues.

Wemby is on the injury report for the first time this season on the second night of a back-to-back, and if he were to sit out, Zach Collins would likely fill the void in the starting lineup. Sandro Mamukelashvili would also see a few extra minutes off the bench.
