All-around effort Thursday Langford closed with 11 points (5-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt), four rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals in 28 minutes during Thursday's 118-109 win over the Rockets.

Impact Langford put together a solid performance Thursday, slotting into the starting lineup as the Spurs continue to deal with multiple injuries. It's really hard to know what to do with this given the team could look completely different from one game to the next. Even as a starter, Langford is more of a dart-throw than a must-roster player, especially since we have never seen him deliver numbers like this on a consistent basis.

Set to start Thursday Langford will start for the Spurs on Thursday against the Rockets.

Impact Langford draws his third start of the season Thursday in place of Devin Vassell (knee). The 23-year-old forward will play against the Rockets after initial concerns of lower back tightness. Expect Langford to see an uptick in minutes from his typical 18.4 per game with Devin Vassell out.

Joins starting lineup Langford will start Thursday's contest against the Rockets.

Impact Langford will reap the benefits of Devin Vassell (knee), Jeremy Sochan (quadriceps) and Keita Bates-Diop (foot) missing Thursday's game, entering the starting lineup alongside Tre Jones, Malaki Branham, Keldon Johnson and Zach Collins. Langford is worth a look as a streaming option for as long as the Spurs are plagued by injuries.

Confirmed to be available Langford (back) will suit up for Thursday's tilt against the Rockets, Tom Osborn of the San Antonio Express-News reports.

Impact Langford left the team's most recent contest due to injury; however, he will not miss any time due to back tightness. He has averaged 5.5 points and 2.7 rebounds across 18.4 minutes per game this season and could see extended run Thursday with Devin Vassell (knee) out.

Should play Thursday Langford (ankle) is listed as probable for Thursday's game against the Rockets due to back tightness, Jeff Garcia of KENS 5 San Antonio reports.

Impact Langford logged just eight minutes in the previous game due to what was believed to be an ankle sprain. The injury report lists him as dealing with lower back tightness instead, but it doesn't appear to be much of a concern. Langford should supply double-digit minutes off the bench Thursday, assuming he plays as expected.

Expect him to serve as the Spurs' first wing off the bench Sunday while both Josh Richardson (ankle) and Doug McDermott (ankle) are sidelined.

Approaches double-double vs. OKC Langford closed Wednesday's 119-111 loss to the Thunder with 14 points (6-9 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds and one assist in 21 minutes.

Impact Langford was questionable due to low-back tightness ahead of Wednesday's matchup, but he played through the issue and put up one of his best performances of the season. He scored in double figures for the first time this year and came within two rebounds of a double-double. While Langford has had inconsistent production this year, he's played at least 20 minutes in each of his four appearances since returning from the league's health and safety protocols.

Remains out Sunday Langford (conditioning) will remain out for Sunday's game against the Lakers, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.

Impact He'll end up missing all five of the Spurs' games this week after entering the NBA's COVID-19 health and safety protocols Monday. Though Langford appears to have since cleared the protocol, he looks like he'll need more time to get back in playing shape. Even when he's been available this season, Langford has served as only a fringe member of head coach Gregg Popovich's rotation, so his continued absence shouldn't make any major waves in fantasy.
