Spurs' Dylan Harper: Woeful shooting in loss
Dylan Harper amassed three points (1-11 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 1-4 FT), four rebounds and six assists over 23 minutes during Friday's 130-117 loss to the Cavaliers.Harper was terrible from the field, going 1-for-11 on his way to three points. However, the fact that he played 23 was encouraging, continuing his recent upward trend. He is worth taking a chance on in standard leagues despite this performance, just in case he can carve out a consistent 26-minute role for himself.

Spurs' Dylan Harper: Active in 17 minutes in return
Dylan Harper (calf) recorded seven points (2-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and two steals across 17 minutes in Wednesday's 115-102 win over the Trail Blazers.A poor showing from two-point range dulled some of the impact of Harper's line in his return from a 10-game absence due to a calf strain, but the rookie first-round pick gave the San Antonio Spurs some quality minutes Wednesday to keep San Antonio in position to win its NBA Cup group. San Antonio will likely remain without one of its key pieces in the backcourt in Stephon Castle (hip) for at least a couple more games, so Harper could have the opportunity to pick up more minutes in the short term as he ramps back up following the calf injury.

Spurs' Dylan Harper: Iffy for Wednesday
Dylan Harper (calf) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers, NBA reporter Matthew Tynan reports.Harper has missed the San Antonio Spurs' last 10 games due to a left calf strain, though the questionable tag suggests he can be considered day-to-day moving forward. If the rookie guard is ultimately cleared to play, he'll likely face heavy restrictions following the extended absence. The 19-year-old's return will likely result in fewer minutes for David Jones Garcia and Keldon Johnson. Over six regular-season appearances, Harper has averaged 14.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 0.7 steals while shooting 50.0 percent from the field in 23.3 minutes per contest.
