Another absence coming Bassey (knee) will not play Wednesday against the Rockets.

Ruled out for Tuesday Bassey (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against New Orleans, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.

Impact Bassey will miss Tuesday's contest after exiting Sunday's loss to the Pelicans due to a left knee injury that has now been diagnosed as a bone bruise on his left knee. The club will be extremely thin at center with Victor Wembanyama (shoulder) also on the shelf, meaning Bismack Biyombo and Sandro Mamukelashvili are candidates for an increased role.

FEBRUARY 24 • ROTOWIRE

Won't return Sunday Bassey has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Pelicans due to left knee soreness, NBA reporter Matthew Tynan reports.

Impact Bassey checked out with two seconds left in the first quarter of Sunday's game. He won't return due to a knee injury, but it's not related to the MCL sprain that caused him to miss six games in February, per Michael C. Wright of ESPN.com. Bassey will finish the night with four points (2-3 FG), three rebounds, one assist and two steals over six minutes. Sandro Mamukelashvili will see an expanded role as the Spurs' backup center behind Bismack Biyombo due to Bassey's injury.

FEBRUARY 24 • ROTOWIRE

Receives 11 minutes in return Bassey (knee) registered six points (3-3 FG), two rebounds and two assists across 11 minutes off the bench in Friday's 125-110 loss to the Pistons.

Impact Bassey made his return after missing the Spurs' previous six games due to an MCL sprain in his left knee, joining a new-look San Antonio frontcourt that recently lost Victor Wembanyama (shoulder) for the remainder of the season. Rather than relying on a direct replacement for Wembanyama, the Spurs have thus far turned to a cadre of players to fill the minutes at center over the past two games, with Bassey, Bismack Biyombo, Sandro Mamukelashvili and Jeremy Sochan all factoring into the equation. On the rare occasions he's gotten extended minutes in the past in the NBA, Bassey has shown the ability to put up fantasy-friendly numbers, so his playing time and production will be worthy of monitoring over the next few games. A consistent 20-minute-per-game role could be enough to make Bassey an appealing option in 12-team leagues for fantasy managers in need of help in the field-goal percentage, rebounds and blocks categories.

FEBRUARY 22 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go Friday Bassey (knee) is available for Friday's game against the Pistons.

Impact Bassey missed the Spurs' last six games prior to the All-Star break due to a sprained MCL in his left knee. The 2021 second-round pick should see an uptick in playing time moving forward due to Victor Wembanyama (blood clot) being ruled out for the rest of the season.

FEBRUARY 22 • ROTOWIRE

Probable Friday Bassey (knee) is listed as probable for Friday's game against Detroit.

Impact Bassey is likely to return from a six-game absence Friday due to a sprained MCL in his left knee. The big man will likely compete for playing time with Bismack Biyombo due to Victor Wembanyama (blood clot) having been ruled out for the remainder of the season.

FEBRUARY 21 • ROTOWIRE

Sidelined once again Bassey (knee) is out for Thursday's game against the Suns.

Impact Bassey hasn't played since Feb. 3, and his absence will extend for yet another game. The big man is averaging just 10.8 minutes per game across 32 appearances (one start) this season, so even if he's available, he won't have a lot of fantasy upside. His next chance to play will come Friday against the Pistons.

FEBRUARY 19 • ROTOWIRE

Another absence coming Bassey (knee) will miss Wednesday's game against Boston, according toNBA reporter Matthew Tynan.

Impact Bassey will be sidelined for a fifth straight game and remains without a timetable for a return.
