• Spurs' Blake Wesley: Near double-double off bench

  15D ago • By RotoWire

  Wesley ended Thursday's 118-105 victory over the Trail Blazers with 10 points (4-4 FG, 2-2 FT), one rebound, eight assists and two steals in 21 minutes. With Jeremy Sochan (thumb), Devin Vassell (foot) and Tre Jones (ankle) sidelined and Malaki Branham (ankle) leaving the contest early, Wesley saw an increased role and made the most of it, recording season highs in points, assists, steals and minutes played. It was only the fourth time Wesley played double-digit minutes this season, and despite the solid performance, he'll likely remain in a limited role. Sochan is expected to miss multiple weeks, but Vassell has been cleared to make his season debut Saturday, while Jones and Branham could be back sooner than later.

• Spurs' Blake Wesley: Logs season-high 13 minutes

  23D ago • By RotoWire

  Wesley amassed five points (2-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and one rebound in 13 minutes during Wednesday's 105-93 loss to Oklahoma City. Wesley logged a season high in minutes, a feat that is not that impressive given his previous high was 12. A portion of his playing time came at the back end of the game, once the result was decided. Even with the Spurs' guard depth a little thin, Wesley has been unable to carve out a meaningful role. Barring a significant shift in their rotations, Wesley is not someone who needs to be considered in standard formats.

• Spurs' Blake Wesley: Has option picked up

  10/18/2024 • By RotoWire

  Wesley had his fourth-year team option picked up by the Spurs on Friday, Ty Jager of FanSided.com reports. Wesley averaged 5.4 points, 2.3 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 0.5 steals, 0.3 blocks and 0.4 triples across 17.0 minutes in the final 20 games of his sophomore season in San Antonio. Although his option was picked up, the guard will presumably have to earn a spot providing depth in the backcourt once the regular season tips off.

• Spurs' Blake Wesley: Career-best numbers in finale

  04/15/2024 • By RotoWire

  Wesley closed Sunday's 123-95 win over Detroit with 17 points (7-9 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds, five assists and three steals across 30 minutes. The 17 points were a career high for the second-year guard, while the boards and steals tied his previous highs. Wesley is still struggling to establish himself in the Spurs' backcourt rotation after being the 25th overall pick in the 2022 NBA Draft, but he at least heads into the offseason with a bit of confidence.

  Wesley is starting Friday's game against the Nuggets. This marks Wesley's second start of the 2023-24 campaign, with his last dating back to Jan. 24 against the Thunder. He should get plenty of looks Friday due to the absence of Malaki Branham (concussion).
