  • Spurs' Malaki Branham: Spurs pick up option

    The Spurs exercised their fourth-year team option on Branham on Friday, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.

    Branham has emerged as a solid rotational piece for the Spurs and has improved with each passing year, so the team has decided to keep him around not only for this season, but for 2025-26 as well. Branham averaged 9.2 points, 2.1 assists and 2.0 rebounds per game across 75 regular-season appearances in 2023-24, his second year in The Association.

  • Spurs' Malaki Branham: Good to go

    Branham (concussion) is practicing with the team during training camp, Matt Guzman of SI.com reports.

    Branham missed the Spurs' 2023-24 regular-season finale with a concussion, but he's been a full participant in training camp ahead of the 2024-25 campaign. The guard figures to compete with Stephon Castle and Blake Wesley for the starting shooting guard spot while Devin Vassell (foot) is sidelined. Once Vassell is healthy, Branham should handle a significant role off the bench.

  • Spurs' Malaki Branham: Ruled out for Sunday

    Branham (concussion) is out for Sunday's game against the Pistons, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.

    Barlow landed in the concussion protocol Friday, and his availability for the season finale was always considered a long shot, especially considering the Spurs have nothing to play for Sunday. Branham logged 75 appearances, including 29 starts, for the Spurs this season, though he didn't experience a sizable uptick in the statistical department. He averaged 9.2 points, 2.0 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 0.4 steals across 21.3 minutes per contest.

  • Spurs' Malaki Branham: Lands in concussion protocol

    Branham has been ruled out for Friday's game against Denver and is unlikely to play Sunday versus Detroit, Jeff McDonald of the San Antonio Express-News reports.

    Branham was recently dealing with a minor hip injury, but it appears he suffered a concussion during Wednesday's loss to the Thunder. He played just 20 minutes during that contest and snapped a streak of seven straight double-digit scoring performances. During that stretch, Branham started five of his seven appearances and averaged 15.6 points on 48.8 percent shooting in 30.4 minutes per game.

  • Spurs' Malaki Branham: Good to go

    Branham (hip) is available for Wednesday's game against the Thunder, Tom Orsborn of the San Antonio Express-News reports.

    Branham will shake off a questionable tag and should draw a sixth straight start. Over his last five starts, Branham has averaged 16.4 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 34.8 minutes per game.

  • Spurs' Malaki Branham: Questionable for Wednesday

    Branham is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Thunder due to a right hip contusion.

    Branham has started in five consecutive matchups, averaging 16.4 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 34.8 minutes per game. He hasn't missed a game since late January, but it's unclear whether he'll be able to suit up Wednesday due to his hip issue.

  • Spurs' Malaki Branham: Pops for 22 against Philadelphia

    Branham supplied 22 points (8-15 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one block over 44 minutes during Sunday's 133-126 double-overtime loss to the 76ers.

    Making his fourth straight start in place of Devin Vassell (foot), Branham topped 20 points for the second time in that stretch, although he needed to play a career-high 44 minutes to do it. The second-year guard has taken on a larger role during this latest stint in the starting five, averaging 18.0 points, 3.3 threes, 2.5 boards and 2.0 assists in 36.5 minutes per game. Since Vassell is done for the year, Branham could maintain that level of production over the final week of the regular season.

  • Spurs' Malaki Branham: Enters starting lineup

    Branham will start during Sunday's game against the Warriors.

    Branham will return to the starting lineup for the first time since Mar. 9 due to Devin Vassell (foot) and Jeremy Sochan (ankle) being sidelined. In his last five starts, Branham has averaged 12.4 points, 6.2 rebounds and 2.4 assists in 23.8 minutes per game.

  • Spurs' Malaki Branham: Contributes 10 points off bench

    Branham supplied 10 points (3-4 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 2-4 FT), two rebounds and two assists over 19 minutes during Friday's 130-126 overtime victory over New York.

    Branham came into the contest averaging just 6.0 points on 33.8 percent shooting over his previous nine games, but he stepped up to make an impact off the bench Friday despite logging less than 20 minutes. The second-year guard was a starter earlier in the campaign but has come off the bench in 25 of his past 27 contests, with his production unsurprisingly dropping as a result. Branham can get hot from time to time but is far off the radar in all but the deepest of fantasy formats.

  • Spurs' Malaki Branham: Returns to bench Monday

    Branham will come off the bench due to Devin Vassell re-entering the starting lineup for Monday's game against Golden State,

    Branham has scored at least 20 points in three straight games, with two performances coming off the bench. San Antonio will be at full strength with the exception of Cedi Osman (ankle), so Branham should reprise a 20-30 minute role Monday.

  • Spurs' Malaki Branham: Drops 20 points in spot start

    Branham totaled 20 points (7-15 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds and two assists in 29 minutes during Saturday's 126-113 victory over the Warriors.

    Branham moved into the starting lineup Saturday, replacing Devin Vassell, who was a late scratch due to an apparent hip issue. That makes three games in a row of at least 20 points, putting Branham firmly on the standard-league radar. It wouldn't be surprising to see the Spurs leaning more into their second and third units moving forward, meaning Branham could continue to be a solid source of points and threes.

  • Spurs' Malaki Branham: Starting against Warriors

    Branham will start Saturday's game against the Warriors, ESPN's Andrew Lopez reports.

    Branham is likely to see significant minutes Saturday, as Devin Vassell (hip) was a late scratch and joins Victor Wembanyama (ankle) on the shelf. In addition to Branham, it's likely that Blake Wesley steps into a larger role in the offense.
