Through November 7 of 2026–27, he has played 10 games, averaging 11.9 points, 3.8 rebounds and 3.1 assists. He supplies backcourt scoring, shooting and defensive support for San Antonio. Converting open opportunities while limiting turnovers can keep his role reliable within a multi-option offense.
Updated 2026-11-10Vassell came from Florida State and was selected 11th by San Antonio in 2020. His NBA career has developed with the Spurs, beginning with a smaller scoring role before greater shooting and passing responsibility. As the roster and primary ball-handlers changed, his place in the offense also adjusted, so the career progression is not a simple uninterrupted rise in points.
In 2023–24, he played 68 games and averaged 19.5 points, 3.8 rebounds and 4.1 assists. Scoring and assists in that season were well above his early-career levels, documenting experience with a larger offensive assignment. Later changes in shot distribution should be read within that history rather than treating lower points as the whole story.
