Interim coach Mitch Johnson said Vassell (foot) will play in Saturday's game versus the Jazz but will come off the bench while on a minutes restriction, independent NBA writer Matthew Tynan reports. Vassell is set to make his season debut Saturday after missing the first nine games of the 2024-25 campaign while recovering from left foot surgery. However, Vassell should play fewer than his average of 33.1 minutes per contest from last season and will be eased back into San Antonio's rotation.

Vassell (foot) is expected to make his season debut Saturday against the Jazz, Shams Charania of ESPN reports. He's officially listed as probable. Vassell was cleared for full basketball activities Thursday, and the Spurs are likely to officially sign off on him making his debut following their morning shootaround Saturday. The 24-year-old wing missed the first few weeks of the season while on the mend from offseason foot surgery, so he'll likely be operating under a minutes restriction in his debut Saturday and could even come off the bench. Vassell is coming off a career-best 2023-24 season in which he averaged 19.5 points, 4.1 assists, 3.8 rebounds and 2.4 three-pointers in 33.1 minutes over his 68 appearances.

Vassell (foot) was cleared for all basketball activities Thursday and remains on track to debut during the team's current homestand, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports. Vassell's 2024-25 debut could arrive as early as Saturday against Portland, but his availability will likely be determined by how he fares in workouts over the next day and a half. The Spurs have yet to comment on whether he'll face a minutes restriction upon his return, but that should come into focus once he gets the green light.

The Spurs have optimism that Vassell (foot) will be able to make his season debut during Saturday's game versus the Jazz, Shams Charania of ESPN reports Vassell has already been ruled out Thursday and has missed the beginning of the 2024-25 campaign while recovering from offseason foot surgery. While it wouldn't be surprising for the 24-year-old wing to operate under a minutes restriction early on, he should eventually reclaim a spot in the starting five.

Vassell (foot) is out for Thursday's game versus the Trail Blazers. Vassell has yet to suit up this season while recovering from left foot surgery. While Vassell is reportedly ramping up his activity, his next chance to return to action will be Saturday's matchup with Utah.
