Spurs' Charles Bassey: Blocks two shots in loss
Bassey amassed five points (2-3 FG, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, two blocks and one steal across 11 minutes during Wednesday's 129-115 loss to the Grizzlies.
Bassey continues to serve as the primary backup behind Victor Wembanyama, recording at least one block for the third straight game. As long as Wembanyama is healthy, Bassey's opportunities will be limited. However, it is clear he has moved ahead of Zach Collins in the rotation, meaning should Wembanyama miss any time moving forward, Bassey would be next in line to assume the starting role.

Spurs' Charles Bassey: Shines off bench Saturday
Bassey posted 16 points (7-9 FG, 2-2 FT), 12 rebounds and one steal in 18 minutes during Saturday's 114-94 win over the Trail Blazers.
Though Victor Wembanyama captured most of the headlines with a 30-point, 10-block performance, Bassey turned heads while serving as Wembanyama's backup. Bassey appears to have solidified his spot in the rotation as the backup center ahead of Zach Collins, who has been available for the past two contests but hasn't played after a recent two-game absence due to a back injury. Bassey has shown the ability to post interesting per-minute numbers throughout his career, but unless Wembanyama misses time, Bassey's fantasy appeal will be largely left to deeper leagues. Bassey is unlikely to surpass 20 minutes in competitive contests while Wembanyama is available.

Spurs' Charles Bassey: Surprises with double-double
Bassey finished Sunday's 121-116 victory over the Pelicans with 16 points (6-12 FG, 4-7 FT), 12 rebounds and four blocks over 18 minutes.
Bassey did most of his damage during Victor Wembanyama's brief absence, logging seven points, a rebound and a blocked shot in the first quarter. Sunday was easily his best game of the season, but it would take an extended absence from Wembanyama for the shot-block specialist to have significant fantasy value.

Spurs' Charles Bassey: Swats six shots Thursday
Bassey racked up 11 points (5-9 FG, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, one assist, six blocks and one steal in 27 minutes during Thursday's 126-118 victory over the Jazz.
Bassey was efficient as a scorer and aggressive on the glass, but there's no doubt that he made his biggest impact as a rim protector. The six blocks were a career-high mark for the big man, who might continue to enjoy extra minutes off the bench as long as Victor Wembanyama (knee) remains sidelined.

Spurs' Charles Bassey: Fails to score in win
Bassey supplied no counting stats in one minute during Saturday's 113-103 win over Minnesota.
Bassey played one minute of garbage time, just the third time he has seen the court all season. Following a torn ACL in December, Bassey has worked his way back into the rotation, albeit on a sporadic basis. He possesses an intriguing skill set, something we may see a bit more of further down the track should the Spurs start looking to the future. At this point, he is unlikely to be anything more than a depth piece.

Spurs' Charles Bassey: Limited in training camp
Bassey (knee) is expected to be limited in training camp but should be good to go for the Spurs' regular-season opener on Oct. 24 against Dallas, Jeff McDonald of the San Antonio Express-News reports.
Bassey is still recovering from surgery to repair his torn left ACL in December but is expected to be healthy by the start of the regular season. However, the 24-year-old big man is unlikely to be a significant part of San Antonio's rotation in 2024-25.

Spurs' Charles Bassey: Returning to San Antonio

Bassey made just 19 appearances for the Spurs in 2023-24 before suffering a torn ACL. While he is expected to return in the first half of the 2024-25 campaign, Bassey will likely compete for depth minutes in San Antonio's frontcourt.

Charles Bassey: Waived by San Antonio
The Spurs waived Bassey (knee) on Monday, Jeff McDonald of the San Antonio Express-News reports.
Bassey's release was a necessity after the team acquired Harrison Barnes via trade and signed Chris Paul. However, the team could look to bring the 23-year-old back if he clears waivers. Bassey's 2023-24 season was cut short in December by a torn ACL, but he made 19 appearances prior and averaged 3.3 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 0.9 blocks across 10.8 minutes per game.
