Victor Wembanyama - Matches career-high 20 reboundsWembanyama logged 14 points (6-14 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 20 rebounds, five assists and four blocks over 35 minutes during Monday's 106-101 loss to the Rockets.
ImpactWembanyama couldn't find his shot from distance, but he had an efficient offensive game on the interior and contributed five assists. The bigger story was his presence on the glass -- matching his career-high 20 rebounds -- not to mention a season-high four blocks. The sophomore phenom has yet to put it all together into one massive performance, but that will come sooner than later. He's already posted season highs of 29 points, 20 rebounds, five assists and four blocks in three games.

Devin Vassell - Rehab continues with G League tripSan Antonio assigned Vassell (foot) to the G League's Austin Spurs on Monday morning and recalled him in the afternoon.
ImpactVassell presumably went through a training camp practice with Austin, as it was reported Monday that the shooting guard has progressed to light contact work during recent workouts. Coach Gregg Popovich also said he's expecting Vassell to be ready for game action during the first week of November, which remains in line with his Nov. 1 re-evaluation timeline. Regardless, Vassell needed a second surgery this summer after his right foot didn't heal properly from the first one, so the Spurs will likely remain cautious even when he's cleared to suit up. Across 68 regular-season appearances last season, Vassell averaged 19.5 points, 4.1 assists, 3.8 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 33.1 minutes.

ImpactGreen's 36 points mark a new season best as the Rockets improved to 2-2. The guard is on pace to average a career-best 28.8 points per game, but his peripheral stats are lacking right now with 3.8 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 0.8 steals.
