Spurs’ Devin Vassell facing arthroscopic surgery, no timetable for return

SAN ANTONIO – Spurs starter Devin Vassell will have arthroscopic surgery on his left knee Wednesday, Jan. 11 in New York City.

That is according to a statement released by the team Thursday, that said the surgery will be performed by Dr. Riley J. Williams III.

Vassell has been bothered by soreness in his left knee that has forced him to miss three out of the last four games, most recently in the 117-114 loss to the Knicks in New York on Wednesday.

It is believed to be a minor procedure even though there is no timetable given for his return.

In his absence, expect more playing time for Romeo Langford and Malaki Branham.
