The 25-year-old forward has a big day at both ends of the court, as he posted his best steals total since Dec. 10 while draining multiple three-pointers for the ninth time in 13 March appearances. On the month, Vassell is averaging 13.7 points, 3.8 boards, 2.8 assists, 2.6 threes and 1.0 steals a contest.

Spurs' Victor Wembanyama: Big double-double in Saturday's win
Rotowire
Wembanyama logged 23 points (7-21 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 9-10 FT), 15 rebounds, six assists, one block and two steals over 31 minutes during Saturday's 127-95 victory over the Bucks.
His performance got overshadowed by Stephon Castle's fourth triple-double of the season, but Wembanyama led the Spurs in scoring on the afternoon while delivering his 38th double-double. The third-year superstar has pulled down 15 boards in three straight games and at least 12 in six of his last eight contests, averaging 24.1 points, 12.3 rebounds, 4.1 assists, 3.5 blocks, 1.8 threes and 1.5 steals over that stretch.
Spurs' Stephon Castle: Triple-doubles in blowout win
Rotowire
Castle contributed 22 points (9-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 10 rebounds and 10 assists across 29 minutes in Saturday's 127-95 win over the Bucks.
Castle took advantage of a favorable matchup against the banged-up Bucks, securing his fourth career triple-double and second on the month. The second-year guard led the Spurs in assists, dishing out double-digit dimes for the fourth time across his last seven appearances. He also finished second on the club in rebounds and points, scoring 22 after averaging 12.3 points over his last three outings.

Spurs' Luke Kornet: Absent from injury report
Rotowire
Kornet (knee) is off the injury report for Saturday's game against Milwaukee, Matt Guzman of SI.com reports.
After sitting out Wednesday's win over Memphis due to right knee injury management, Kornet is ready to return to the court for the Spurs to handle his usual duties as the No. 2 center behind Victor Wembanyama. Over his last five games, Kornet has averaged 5.8 points, 7.6 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 19.0 minutes per game while shooting 55.6 percent from the floor.

Spurs' De'Aaron Fox: Not listed on injury report
Rotowire
Fox (back) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Saturday's game in Milwaukee, Matt Guzman of SI.com reports.
Fox is set to return after a one-game stint on the sidelines, which will likely shift Dylan Harper back to the second unit. Julian Champagnie's usage rate should also dip with Fox back in the mix.
Castle logged 15 points (5-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 5-9 FT), three rebounds and nine assists in 26 minutes during Wednesday's 123-98 victory over the Grizzlies.
Castle has been thriving as a playmaker in recent weeks, and he showed his excellent vision once again Wednesday with nine assists in this blowout win over Memphis. The second-year guard has dished out six or more assists in seven games in a row and is averaging 7.5 dimes, as well as 16.2 points and 4.9 rebounds, per game since the All-Star break.

Spurs' Julian Champagnie: Fills stat sheet in win
Rotowire
Champagnie ended with 13 points (4-10 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 26 minutes during Wednesday's 123-98 victory over the Grizzlies.
Champagnie ended just two rebounds away from recording a double-double, and he left his mark across the board with at least one tally in each of the five major categories. These games are fairly common for Champagnie, but he plays a secondary role on offense when the Spurs are fully healthy, which limits his overall upside. All things considered, Champagnie is trending in the right direction, scoring in double digits in four of his last five outings while averaging 11.4 points per game while shooting 38.7 percent from deep in that span.

Spurs' Devin Vassell: Goes for 19 points
Rotowire
Vassell logged 19 points (7-10 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, four assists and one steal across 26 minutes during Wednesday's 123-98 victory over the Grizzlies.
Vassell bounced back from the six-point dud he delivered in the win over the Heat on Monday and posted his best scoring mark since he delivered 20 points against the Clippers on March 16. Vassell's game-to-game numbers have been a bit inconsistent, and that has hurt his fantasy upside across the board. The veteran wing is averaging 13.5 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game since the beginning of March while shooting 40 percent from three-point range.
Spurs' Victor Wembanyama: Double-doubles with 10 stocks
Rotowire
Wembanyama racked up 19 points (8-15 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 15 rebounds, three assists, three steals and seven swats in just 27 minutes during Wednesday's 123-98 win over the Grizzlies.
Wembanyama dominated against the Grizzlies' B team, notching his 37th double-double of the season while piling up 10 stocks. He leads the league in total blocks (180), ranks in the top 10 in rebounds (651) and has spearheaded a 23-2 run for the Spurs over their last 25 games.

Spurs' Dylan Harper: Starting sans Fox
Rotowire
Harper will start in Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies, Tom Orsborn of the San Antonio Express-News reports.
Harper will fill in for the absent De'Aaron Fox (back), marking the rookie guard's second career start. Harper played 28 minutes and logged 24 points, four rebounds and three assists in his first start of the campaign.
Kornet (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Memphis.
Kornet will sit out Wednesday's contest due to right knee injury management, and his next opportunity to play will come Saturday in Milwaukee. Kelly Olynyk and Mason Plumlee are candidates to see increased playing time behind Victor Wembanyama in Kornet's absence.

Spurs' De'Aaron Fox: Sitting out vs. Memphis
Rotowire
Fox won't play Wednesday against the Grizzlies due to lower-back tightness.
This will be a rare absence for Fox, who has missed only one game since Nov. 7. Dylan Harper, Jordan McLaughlin and Keldon Johnson will likely see more run in the backcourt in Fox's stead.

Spurs' Stephon Castle: All-around performance in win
Rotowire
Castle supplied 19 points (4-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 9-10 FT), seven rebounds, six assists and two steals over 23 minutes during Monday's 136-111 victory over Miami.
Castle returned from a two-game absence due to right hip soreness and produced across multiple facets, notably doing much of his scoring at the charity stripe. The young guard has taken a meaningful step forward as a passer this season, entering Monday's contest averaging 7.1 assists and now logging five-plus assists in each of his past 10 games, including five tallies of double-digit dimes.

Spurs' Dylan Harper: Scoring punch off bench
Rotowire
Harper contributed 21 points (9-14 FG, 3-5 3Pt), six assists, four rebounds and two blocks over 25 minutes during Monday's 136-111 victory over Miami.
Harper reverted to the bench after a 24-point performance as a starter Saturday but maintained his scoring output, eclipsing the 20-point mark for the second straight game. Not known as much of a shot blocker, Monday marked the guard's fourth time this season with multiple rejections. Outside shooting has been a weakness for Harper in his rookie year, though he entered the matchup with Miami shooting 53.8 percent from beyond the arc over his previous 10 contests and kept that surge going with three triples in a blowout victory.

Spurs' Keldon Johnson: Drops 21 points off bench
Rotowire
Johnson chipped in 21 points (7-14 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds and one assist over 24 minutes during Monday's 136-111 win over the Heat.
Johnson continued his strong scoring contributions, topping 20 points for the second straight game. The wing has now reached the 20-point mark 12 times this season, with three of those performances coming in March. While the 26-year-old no longer averages 22.0 points or starts every game like he did during the 2022-23 campaign, Johnson remains a key bench piece capable of providing a scoring punch for a Spurs team with aspirations of making a deep run in the postseason.

Spurs' Victor Wembanyama: Double-double in win
Rotowire
Wembanyama accumulated 26 points (11-22 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 15 rebounds, five blocks and four assists in 26 minutes during Monday's 136-111 victory over the Heat.
Wembanyama turned in a strong performance, recording his fourth double-double in the past six contests while also rejecting five shots for the second straight game. On the year, the center has recorded 36 double-doubles and blocked five-plus shots 15 times, both remarkable marks for one of the NBA's brightest young stars.
