Devin Vassell is expected to potentially make his season debut as early as Saturday, when the San Antonio Spurs take on the Utah Jazz.

Vassell has been recovering from offseason shoulder surgery, which was required to address issues that had impacted his performance last year.

His return is highly anticipated, as he’s a critical component of the Spurs’ lineup and a promising young talent within the organization.

In his 68 games last season, Vassell showcased his versatility and scoring ability, averaging 19.5 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 4.1 assists while playing 33.1 minutes per game.

His scoring, playmaking, and defensive capabilities have made him one of the Spurs’ most reliable players, and the team has felt his absence on both ends of the court this season.

The Spurs currently hold a 3-5 record as they head into Thursday night’s game against the Portland Trail Blazers.

San Antonio is looking to build some early-season momentum, and Vassell’s return could be a major boost for the team, providing a steady scoring option and more depth to their rotation.
