Injury report
Houston Rockets
- Steven AdamsOut· back Nov 15Report updated ·
Report note
Injury/Illness - Right Soleus Strain (2026-11-11, GSW@HOU). Prior reporting (2026-11-09): Head coach Ime Udoka said Monday that Adams could return as soon as Sunday's game at Washington, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports. The veteran center is still recovering from a right soleus strain and hasn't played since Oct. 23. With Adams and Clint Capela (ankle) both sidelined, Tari Eason and Jabari Smith figure to see increased burn at center.
- Clint CapelaOut· back Nov 15Report updated ·
Report note
Injury/Illness - Right Ankle Sprain (2026-11-11, GSW@HOU). Prior reporting (2026-11-09): Head coach Ime Udoka stated Monday that Capela (ankle) could be cleared to return either Nov. 15 in Washington or Nov. 16 in Miami, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports. Capela is missing a fourth straight game Monday against Denver due to a right ankle sprain, but he appears to be trending in the right direction. He'll presumably need to log 5-on-5 work before gaining clearance to play, though the Rockets haven't disclosed how far along the big man is in his rehab.

San Antonio Spurs
- Devin VassellOut· back Nov 13Report updated ·
Report note
Injury/Illness - Left Adductor Tightness (2026-11-11, SAS@CHI). Prior reporting (2026-11-11): Vassell (adductor) won't play in Wednesday's game against the Bulls, Jeff Garcia of KENS 5 San Antonio reports. Wednesday marks a second consecutive absence for Vassell due to an adductor injury. His void in the starting lineup paves the way for Julian Champagnie to draw a second straight start on the wing for the Spurs.
- Tobias HarrisOut· back Nov 19Report updated ·
Report note
Injury/Illness - Left Calf Strain (2026-11-11, SAS@CHI). Prior reporting (2026-11-10): Harris (calf) is out for Wednesday's game against Chicago, Jared Weiss of The Athletic reports. With Harris still sidelined, San Antonio will rely more on Julian Champagnie. Harris has yet to make his Spurs debut this season, so his absence continues to leave minutes available on the wing until he is cleared to return.
- Jayden QuaintanceOut· back Dec 3
Report note
Injury/Illness - Right Knee Surgery (2026-11-11, SAS@CHI). Prior reporting (2026-10-05): Quaintance has been around the team but has not yet been cleared for basketball activities, Matt Guzman of SI.com reports. The Spurs are expected to exercise extreme caution with the big man, as Quaintance suffered a torn ACL and meniscus with Arizona State in February 2025 before appearing in only four games with Kentucky last season due to severe complications and persistent swelling. The 19-year-old underwent a cleanup procedure on his meniscus in mid-July, and the Spurs will likely want him at 100 percent before ramping him up to basketball activities.
