Devin Vassell ruled out against Suns with adductor tightness

San Antonio Spurs starting wing Devin Vassell has been ruled out of Monday's game against the Phoenix Suns due to adductor tightness. Vassell had initially been listed as questionable before being downgraded. His absence marks the first time this season that the Spurs are missing a main starter from their regular rotation.

Vassell joins Tobias Harris and Jayden Quaintance on San Antonio's injury report, forcing the team to alter its starting lineup for the first time this season. Julian Champagnie is considered a likely candidate to replace Vassell alongside Dylan Harper in the starting group.
