    Vassell may have missed about three weeks of play with an adductor strain earlier this year, but he's been a solid fantasy asset when healthy throughout 2025-26. Over his last nine appearances, the swingman has averaged 12.2 points, 5.4 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.0 steals in 28.8 minutes per game.
