Will remain in bench role
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.
Analysis
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.

Looks sharp in season debut
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.
Analysis
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.

Will operate on minutes restriction
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.
Analysis
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.

Set to debut Saturday
Vassell (foot) is expected to make his season debut Saturday against the Jazz, Shams Charania of ESPN reports. He's officially listed as probable.
Analysis
Vassell was cleared for full basketball activities Thursday, and the Spurs are likely to officially sign off on him making his debut following their morning shootaround Saturday. The 24-year-old wing missed the first few weeks of the season while on the mend from offseason foot surgery, so he'll likely be operating under a minutes restriction in his debut Saturday and could even come off the bench. Vassell is coming off a career-best 2023-24 season in which he averaged 19.5 points, 4.1 assists, 3.8 rebounds and 2.4 three-pointers in 33.1 minutes over his 68 appearances.

Continues to make progress
Vassell (foot) was cleared for all basketball activities Thursday and remains on track to debut during the team's current homestand, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.
Analysis
Vassell's 2024-25 debut could arrive as early as Saturday against Portland, but his availability will likely be determined by how he fares in workouts over the next day and a half. The Spurs have yet to comment on whether he'll face a minutes restriction upon his return, but that should come into focus once he gets the green light.

Could debut Saturday
There is optimism within the Spurs' organization that Vassell (foot) will be able to make his season debut during Saturday's game versus the Jazz, Shams Charania of ESPN reports
Analysis
Vassell has already been ruled out Thursday and has missed the beginning of the 2024-25 campaign while recovering from offseason foot surgery. While it wouldn't be surprising for the 24-year-old guard to operate under a minutes restriction early on, he should eventually reclaim his role as San Antonio's starting shooting guard.

Remains sidelined Thursday
Vassell (foot) is out for Thursday's game versus the Trail Blazers.
Analysis
Vassell has yet to suit up this season while recovering from left foot surgery. While Vassell is reportedly ramping up his activity, his next chance to return to action will be Saturday's matchup with Utah.
