The Spurs announced Monday that Vassell will be shut down for the remainder of the season due to a stress reaction in his right foot, Dan Weiss of Bally Sports San Antonio reports. The Scoop:Vassell will miss San Antonio's final eight contests as a result of the injury, bringing an end to a stellar fourth NBA season in which he averaged career-best marks in points (19.5) and assists (4.1) while chipping in 3.8 rebounds, 2.4 three-pointers and 1.1 steals in 33.1 minutes per game over 68 appearances while shooting 47.2 percent from the field. The stress reaction is located in the third metatarsal of Vassell's right foot, likely stemming from chronic wear and tear as opposed to a specific incident.

Dealing with left foot soreness Vassell is questionable for Sunday's game against the Warriors due to left foot soreness, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports. The Scoop: Vassell is a late addition to the injury report, which is never a good sign. Keldon Johnson (foot) and Jeremy Sochan (ankle) are already out, so if Vassell joins his fellow starters on the sideline, Victor Wembanyama would have to shoulder a heavy load. Malaki Branham and Blake Wesley would also likely see upticks in playing time. Mar 31 8:04 ET |
