Reggie Bullock - Good to go WednesdayBullock (illness) isn't on the injury report for Wednesday's game versus the Grizzlies.
ImpactBullock is available Wednesday after missing Houston's previous contest with a non-COVID illness. With Amen Thompson (illness) and Tari Eason (leg) listed as questionable, Bullock could be in store for extended minutes against Memphis.

Tari Eason - Questionable for WednesdayEason is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game versus the Grizzlies due to left lower leg soreness.
ImpactEason continues to deal with a left leg injury but has suited up in Houston's last eight contests. If the second-year forward is ruled out, Jae'Sean Tate and Reggie Bullock are candidates to receive increased minutes.

Amen Thompson - Iffy against MemphisThompson is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game versus the Grizzlies due to an illness.
ImpactThompson made his return to action Monday after a 15-game absence due to an ankle injury. While the rookie guard has recovered from that injury, an illness could keep him out of Wednesday's contest. If Thompson is ruled out, Aaron Holiday and Jae'Sean Tate could receive extended minutes.

Spurs' Bassey to miss remainder of season after tearing ACL in NBA G League game
San Antonio Spurs center Charles Bassey has a torn anterior cruciate ligament and will miss the rest of the seasonDECEMBER 12, 2023•ASSOCIATED PRESS
Charles Bassey - Suffers torn ACLBassey will miss the remainder of the season after tearing his left ACL in Sunday's G League contest against the Legends, Jeff McDonald of the San Antonio Express-News reports.
ImpactBassey was re-evaluated Tuesday in San Antonio, which confirmed initial fears of a serious injury for the 23-year-old. Bassey was on pace for a new career high in minutes played this season, producing 3.3 points and 4.0 rebounds while shooting 72.5 percent from the field in 10.8 minutes per game across 19 appearances. Dominick Barlow becomes a critical piece for San Antonio's G League affiliate, and he could earn promotions when the Spurs need frontcourt depth. Sandro Mamukelashvili also climbs in the depth chart. Bassey will look to make a full recovery ahead of the 2024-25 season, but it's worth noting that his left leg is where he suffered a tibial plateau fracture during his time at Western Kentucky as well.

Jeremy Sochan - Loses out on point guard roleSochan recorded seven points (3-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt), six rebounds, two assists and one steal across 35 minutes in Monday's 93-82 loss to the Rockets.
ImpactAfter a one-game benching, Sochan has started in San Antonio's last two games, but he's seen more time off the ball as a forward while Devin Vassell and Malaki Branham have handled more of the ball-handling responsibilities. According to Shams Charania of The Athletic, the Spurs plan to take a committee approach to the point guard spot moving forward, after Sochan had previously taken on that role for much of the season to limited success. In addition to Vassell, Branham and Sochan, bench guard Tre Jones will also serve as a ballhandler when he's on the floor. The arrangement is likely to result in fewer assist opportunities for Sochan, who has already seen his usage dip below 15 percent in both of his last two starts, well down from the 18.9 percent rate he's carrying for the season. If the recent downturn in usage proves to be sticky, Sochan may no longer be worthy of holding in most 12-team category leagues, even if he continues to see 30-plus minutes in most games.
