Impact Cissoko has yet to make an appearance at the NBA level this season, and he remains firmly off the standard-league fantasy radar.

Recalled from G League The Spurs recalled Cissoko from the G League on Monday.
Scores 15 points Thursday Cissoko posted 15 points (6-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-4 FT) and four rebounds across 23 minutes off the bench in Thursday's 129-107 preseason loss to the Rockets.
Impact Cissoko was one of three Spurs who scored at least 15 points, with Stephon Castle and Malaki Branham being the others, and he turned a few heads with his play in this preseason finale. However, this might not be enough to give him a steady role in the rotation, especially on a crowded backcourt, meaning Cissoko will probably open the season in the G League with the Austin Spurs.
OCTOBER 18 • ROTOWIRE
Listed in Spurs roster Cissoko (undisclosed) is listed in the Spurs roster ahead of training camp for the 2024-25 season.
Impact Cissoko made 12 regular-season appearances as a rookie, averaging 3.9 points and 1.9 rebounds in 11.8 minutes per game. His chances of competing for a role in the rotation in 2024-25 are slim, but if he doesn't crack the roster, then he should have a prominent role for the Austin Spurs in the G League.
SEPTEMBER 28 • ROTOWIRE

Impact It's unclear why Cissoko was left off the active roster for Sunday, but it appears as though his Summer League action is done for this year. Over four appearances in the Las Vegas Summer League, he averaged 7.3 points and 4.5 rebounds in 28.0 minutes per game.

Impact Cissoko dealt with a lingering knee issue for most of last season, so hopefully the surgery will have him feeling better ahead of 2024-25. The 2023 second-round pick out of France made 12 NBA appearances as a rookie, averaging 3.9 points and 1.9 rebounds in 11.8 minutes per game.
JULY 2 • ROTOWIRE
