  • Spurs' Malaki Branham: Quiet in return Wednesday

    Branham posted eight points (4-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one rebound and two assists in 13 minutes during Wednesday's 139-130 win over the Wizards.

    Branham returned from a two-game absence due to an ankle injury, playing limited minutes off the bench. He had been playing reasonably well prior to the injury but is now competing for minutes with a healthy Devin Vassell, as well as a confident Stephon Castle. Although Branham is likely to feature in the rotation on a regular basis, he would likely need an injury or two ahead of him to allow him to play significant minutes.
