Devin Vassell remains day-to-day after San Antonio held him out of Monday's preseason game against Utah for rest. His status is unresolved ahead of the Spurs' preseason game against the Suns on Wednesday night.
What happened
Devin Vassell is day-to-day, the same designation he carried on Monday, according to the Spurs' injury report updated Wednesday, Oct. 14 at 6:55 p.m. ET. The report lists no specific body part. Tom Orsborn of the San Antonio Express-News reported that Vassell, dealing with rest, would not play in Monday's preseason game against Utah. The injury report gives no further detail beyond the rest designation and does not list an expected return date.
What it means for the Spurs
San Antonio plays the Suns on Wednesday, Oct. 14 at 8:00 p.m. ET in the preseason. Last season, Vassell averaged 13.9 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 30.5 minutes across 67 games. With Vassell sidelined, the Spurs have leaned on De'Aaron Fox (31.0 minutes, 18.6 points), Stephon Castle (30.0 minutes, 16.7 points) and Victor Wembanyama (29.2 minutes, 25.0 points), with Julian Champagnie, Harrison Barnes, Keldon Johnson, Dylan Harper and Luke Kornet also seeing rotation minutes. The 2026-27 regular season has not started, so San Antonio has no record with or without him yet.
What to watch
The Spurs have not announced an expected return for Vassell, and his day-to-day tag carries over from Monday without a new target date. San Antonio's next injury report will show whether his rest status changes before or after Wednesday's preseason game against the Suns. The Spurs also list Carter Bryant, Dylan Harper, Stephon Castle, Victor Wembanyama, Tobias Harris and De'Aaron Fox as day-to-day, with Jayden Quaintance out, as the preseason schedule continues.
