Quaintance is listed as out with a right knee injury, with an estimated return of Dec. 3, 2026. The injury was first listed on Sept. 6. Matt Guzman of SI.com reports that Quaintance has been around the team but has not yet been cleared for basketball activities. That puts him well short of game action. The Spurs have no firm timeline beyond the estimated return date, and the next step is clearance for on-court work.
