Will be re-evaluated Nov. 1
Vassell (foot) will be re-evaluated Nov. 1, Tom Orsborn of the San Antonio Express-News reports.
The Scoop: Vassell needed a second surgery on his right foot in late June and will be cautious during rehab this time. "It just didn't heal how it was supposed to heal," Vassell said about his foot following his first surgery, which ended his 2023-24 campaign. "I don't want to rush back into it and have another setback," Vassell concluded. The young star will miss the start of the 2024-25 campaign, opening up more minutes for rookie Stephon Castle, but once he's fully healthy, Vassell should be a go-to player alongside Victor Wembanyama. Across 68 regular-season appearances last season, Vassell averaged 19.5 points, 4.1 assists, 3.8 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 33.1 minutes.
