Impact Graham is usually on the fringe of the rotation for the Spurs, so his status doesn't carry many fantasy implications.

Keldon Johnson - Won't play Sunday Johnson (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Celtics, Adam Himmelsbach of The Boston Globe reports.
Impact Johnson has been downgraded from questionable to out and will miss his first game since Nov. 14. He's been battling back spasms for a couple of weeks, so this may just be a rest day. However, it's also possible the Spurs opt to keep him sidelined for a couple of games to make sure he's back to 100 percent when he plays again. Johnson's next chance to suit up will come Tuesday in Memphis.

Sidy Cissoko - Called up Sunday Cissoko was promoted to San Antonio on Sunday morning, Tom Orsborn of the San Antonio Express-News reports.
Impact Cissoko theoretically brings some physicality with Zach Collins (ankle) ruled out and Keldon Johnson (back) appearing on Sunday's injury report. However, Cissoko has logged just 23 minutes of NBA action across four appearances this season. He's unlikely to play a relevant role against Boston unless serious garbage time comes into play.

Keldon Johnson - Dealing with back spasms Johnson is questionable to play Sunday against Boston due to back spasms, independent NBA writer Matthew Tynan reports.
Impact Johnson logged a full workload in Friday's loss to Portland, delivering 29 points in 32 minutes, but he appeared to be laboring at times throughout the contest. Nonetheless, he did not appear on the injury report until Sunday morning, which could be an ominous sign on the state of his back. More light will be shed on his status throughout San Antonio's shootaround and pregame warm-ups. The 24-year-old has come off the bench for San Antonio's last four contests, with Julian Champagnie getting a stretch in the starting lineup.

Zach Collins - Inactive Sunday Collins (ankle) will not play Sunday versus Boston.
Impact Collins will miss his first game of the season to a right ankle sprain suffered in-game during Friday's loss to Portland. The 26-year-old's next opportunity to return will be Tuesday at Memphis. In his absence, Victor Wembanyama should get a bump in usage, while Cedi Osman, Dominick Barlow and Sandro Mamukelashvili are candidates to see enlarged roles Sunday.

Devonte' Graham - Probable for Sunday Graham (illness) is probable for Sunday's game against Boston, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.
Impact Graham has made only three appearances in December, so his status doesn't carry too many fantasy implications.
DECEMBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Victor Wembanyama - Removed from injury report Wembanyama (rest) is not on the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Celtics, Bruno Passos of PoundingTheRock.com reports.
Impact No surprises here, as Wembanyama was simply given the night off Friday against Portland. San Antonio's next back-to-back set begins on Jan. 12, so fantasy managers will need to prepare for another possible maintenance day.

Zach Collins - Game-time call vs. Celtics Collins (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against Boston, Dan Weiss of Bally Sports San Antonio reports.
Impact Collins was forced to exit Friday's matchup against the Blazers after suffering a right ankle injury, and he was unable to return. He'll likely test the ankle in morning shootaround to determine if he can go Sunday evening.
DECEMBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Malaki Branham - Scores 11 points Friday Branham supplied 11 points (5-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt), six rebounds, three assists and one steal in 29 minutes during Friday's 134-128 loss to the Trail Blazers.
Impact Branham had a scoreless outing against the Jazz on Dec. 26, but he has scored in double digits in his other 10 appearances as a starter since he assumed the starting point guard duties over Tre Jones and Jeremy Sochan. Despite the starting role, Branham is not doing enough to be a major asset in fantasy, and he profiles best as a matchup-based streaming option in most formats.
DECEMBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Keldon Johnson - Keeps thriving off bench Friday Johnson contributed 29 points (9-18 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 8-11 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists and one steal in 32 minutes during Friday's 134-128 loss to Portland.
Impact Johnson has played off the bench in each of San Antonio's last four games in an attempt to spark the second unit. Even though the Spurs have gone 1-3 in that span, Johnson's numbers have been decent, as he has scored at least 25 points in two of those outings. He should continue coming off the bench when the Spurs take on the Celtics on Sunday, but Johnson's fantasy upside shouldn't be affect by the new role given he is still playing a prominent role on offense.
DECEMBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Devin Vassell - Scores 22 points in loss Vassell registered 22 points (8-16 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, five assists, one block and four steals across 31 minutes during Friday's 134-128 loss to the Trail Blazers...
Impact Vassell did everything in his power to avoid the loss Friday against the Blazers. However, his efficient shooting and peripheral contributions were not enough to lift San Antonio to victory in a game where they didn't have Victor Wembanyama due to rest. Vassell has been playing well of late and has scored 17 or more points in five of his last six outings.
