Ruled out Friday Bassey (knee) will not play in Friday's game against Charlotte.
Impact Bassey sustained a sprained left MCL injury against the Grizzlies on Monday, and is slated to miss his second consecutive contest. With Bassey out, Jeremy Sochan will see extended minutes backing up Victor Wembanyama for the time being.

Suffers knee injury Bassey won't play in Wednesday's game versus the Hawks due to a sprained left MCL.
Impact Bassey suffered his injury during Monday's loss to the Grizzlies, per Tom Orsborn of the San Antonio Express-News. With the 24-year-old big man sidelined, Sandro Mamukelashvili is San Antonio's only option for a backup center behind Victor Wembanyama. While Bassey's next chance to suit up is Friday's matchup with Charlotte, it wouldn't be surprising for him to miss extended time.

Slides back to bench Monday Bassey is coming off the bench in Monday's game against the Grizzlies, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.
Impact With Victor Wembanyama overcoming an illness Monday, Bassey will slide back to San Antonio's bench following Saturday's spot start. Across 30 contests from the Spurs' second unit this year, Bassey has averaged 4.5 points, 4.3 rebounds and 0.9 blocks in 10.4 minutes, so he'll likely be hard-pressed for fantasy value against Memphis.
FEBRUARY 4 • ROTOWIRE
Solid in spot start Saturday Bassey finished with nine points (4-8 FG, 1-2 FT), 15 rebounds, one assist and one block in 27 minutes during Saturday's 105-103 loss to Miami.
Impact The big man recorded a game-high mark in rebounds while making his third career start due to Victor Wembanyama's (illness) absence. Bassey has been held out via coach's decision in three of the club's last five outings, so he will likely remain in an extremely limited role once Wembannyama is able to return. Until then, Bassey should be expected to pick up fairly significant minutes in the frontcourt, competing for playing time with Sandro Mamukelashvili and Zach Collins.

Starting Saturday vs. Heat Bassey is in the Spurs' starting lineup against the Heat on Saturday, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.
Impact Bassey has been a healthy scratch in three of the Spurs' last four games, but he will start at center Saturday due to the absence of Victor Wembanyama (illness). Bassey averaged 3.6 points and 4.5 rebounds over 10.3 minutes per game in January.
FEBRUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE
Blocks two shots in loss Bassey amassed five points (2-3 FG, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, two blocks and one steal across 11 minutes during Wednesday's 129-115 loss to the Grizzlies.
Impact Bassey continues to serve as the primary backup behind Victor Wembanyama, recording at least one block for the third straight game. As long as Wembanyama is healthy, Bassey's opportunities are going to be limited. However, it is clear he has moved ahead of Zach Collins in the rotation, meaning should Wembanyama miss any time moving forward, Bassey would be next in line to assume the starting role.
JANUARY 16 • ROTOWIRE
Shines off bench Saturday Bassey posted 16 points (7-9 FG, 2-2 FT), 12 rebounds and one steal in 18 minutes during Saturday's 114-94 win over the Trail Blazers.
Impact Even though Victor Wembanyama will gain most of the recognition following his impressive performance Saturday, there's no question Bassey turned heads with his play. The four-year big man matched his season-high marks in both points and rebounds, and he also delivered a double-double for the second time over his last five outings. Even though Bassey might be prone to have solid performances from time to time, his role off the bench and the inconsistency of his minutes -- he's logged more than 15 minutes just three times in that five-game stretch -- limit his upside considerably.

DOUBLE-DOUBLE NIGHT FOR CHARLES BASSEY!

Surprises with double-double Bassey finished Sunday's 121-116 victory over the Pelicans with 16 points (6-12 FG, 4-7 FT), 12 rebounds and four blocks over 18 minutes.
Impact Bassey did most of his damage during Victor Wembanyama's brief absence, logging seven points, a rebound and a blocked shot in the first quarter. Sunday was easily his best game of the season, but it would take an extended absence from Wembnayama for the shot-block specialist to have significant fantasy value.

Swats six shots Thursday Bassey racked up 11 points (5-9 FG, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, one assist, six blocks and one steal in 27 minutes during Thursday's 126-118 victory over the Jazz.
Impact Bassey was efficient as a scorer and aggressive on the glass, but there's no doubt that he made his biggest impact as a rim protector. The six blocks were a career-high mark for the big man, who might continue to enjoy extra minutes off the bench as long as Victor Wembanyama (knee) remains sidelined.

Fails to score in win Bassey supplied no counting stats in one minute during Saturday's 113-103 win over Minnesota.
Impact Bassey played one minute of garbage time, just the third time he has seen the court all season. Following a torn ACL in December, Bassey has worked his way back into the rotation, albeit on a sporadic basis. He does possess an intriguing skill set, something we may get to see a bit more of further down the track, should the Spurs start looking to the future. At this point, he is unlikely to be anything more than a depth piece.

Impact Bassey is still recovering from surgery to repair his torn left ACL in December but is expected to be healthy by the start of the regular season. However, the 24-year-old big man is unlikely to be a significant part of San Antonio's rotation in 2024-25.
