San Antonio Spurs point/shooting guard Lonnie Walker IV (back) has been listed as questionable to suit up for Monday's contest vs. Houston due to lower back tightness. The ailment has sidelined Walker for the past three games, allowing Joshua Primo to take on both starting duties and an expanded offensive role. Prior to a five-minute stint March 18, Walker had been firing on all cylinders offensively, going for at least 20 points in seven of his previous 10 outings. Walker has been a scoring dynamo among the Spurs' second unit since the All-Star break, averaging 17.1 PPG, while shooting 40 percent from deep. Fantasy managers will want to check back prior to tip-off for word on his status.

San Antonio Spurs guard Lonnie Walker IV (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. This marks the third game in a row that Walker has been forced to sit out due to back spasms. Devin Vassell (Achilles) is questionable for Saturday, but would be a solid fantasy option, assuming he plays. Otherwise, Joshua Primo could be looking at heavy minutes with both players out. Fantasy managers will have to check back on Saturday for another update.

San Antonio Spurs shooting guard Lonnie Walker IV (back) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He is dealing with back spasms. The injury caused him to exit last Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans and he sat out the team's next game after that on Sunday. Walker has seen about 25 minutes per game this month and he's averaged 15.1 points per contest. Joshua Primo has logged over 30 minutes in each of the last two games with Walker ailing. The rookie hasn't done a ton with the opportunity, shooting 38.9% from the field while averaging 10.0 points per game over his last two.

San Antonio Spurs guard Lonnie Walker IV (back) won't play against the Warriors. Walker exited Friday's bout versus the New Orleans Pelicans because of back spasms, opening the path for Joshua Primo to get some more minutes. However, with Josh Richardson (calf) back after a one-game absence, Primo's fantasy ceiling is lower, not that it was that high to begin with.

San Antonio Spurs guard Lonnie Walker IV (illness) is set to return from a one-game absence on Wednesday as the team takes on the Toronto Raptors. Walker missed the team's game against the Los Angeles Lakers on Monday due to an illness. There's going to be a crowded wing rotation for the Spurs in Wednesday's game. Devin Vassell (groin) is also returning for the game and he should be part of the starting lineup. Walker will be in the mix for minutes off the bench alongside fellow guards Josh Richardson and Romeo Langford. This will be an interesting game to watch as all four of these players haven't been active at the same time. Langford just recently made his Spurs debut in Monday's game.

The San Antonio Spurs will be without Devin Vassell (groin), Lonnie Walker IV (illness) and Keita Bates-Diop (back) for Monday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers, according to head coach Gregg Popovich. Luckily, star point guard Dejounte Murray (calf) was cleared for action despite a calf injury. Still, the Spurs will be extremely shorthanded for the game. This is a great opportunity for rookie guard Joshua Primo to let loose. We'll see if the 19-year-old can rise to the occasion. Otherwise, expect the Spurs' healthy starters to man a heavy workload.

San Antonio Spurs guard Lonnie Walker IV (illness) is listed as doubtful for Monday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. This is a new addition to the injury report, which could leave the Spurs shorthanded. Devin Vassell (groin) is also listed as doubtful for this contest. Joshua Primo would likely slide into the starting five, assuming both players are sidelined. He could have some great fantasy value with the Spurs thin right now. Fantasy managers should check the waiver wire and see if Primo is available.

San Antonio Spurs guard Lonnie Walker IV (back) will play against the Charlotte Hornets. The 23-year-old was listed on the injury report because of lower back tightness. However, it doesn't appear severe enough to keep him off the floor, although there is a chance he could be limited to some degree, something fantasy managers may want to consider.

San Antonio Spurs shooting guard Lonnie Walker IV (knee) will be available for Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Walker was sidelined for the team's most recent game against the Houston Rockets on Friday due to right knee soreness. The fourth-year pro has been a regular part of the rotation this year, playing 22.9 minutes per game. However, he's shooting just 39% from the field, down from 42% last year. His 29.5% three-point percentage is also a career-low clip. The Spurs have a bit of a logjam amongst their second unit wings between Walker, Devin Vassell and Joshua Primo. Until one stands out from the pack, no one from that trio is particularly worthy of fantasy action.

San Antonio Spurs shooting guard/small forward Lonnie Walker IV (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's contest against the Rockets due to a sore right knee. The decision to hold Walker out comes after he logged 27 minutes off the bench Thursday, shooting 2-for-10 from the floor overall. Without Walker as a member of the second unit, Devin Vassell and Keita Bates-Diop stand to have elevated DFS appeal. Walker has averaged 11.2 PPG this season, the same number that he delivered last year, but with less efficiency, having shot just 29.5% from behind the arc in 2021-22. His next chance to take the floor comes Wednesday vs. Cleveland.

San Antonio Spurs forward Lonnie Walker IV, who recently cleared COVID-19 health and safety protocols, is listed as available against Philadelphia. The 23-year-old is averaging 11.2 points, 2.8 boards, and 2.4 assists this season and could be making his return after sitting out the Spurs' previous three contests. Nonetheless, with San Antonio short-handed on Friday night, Walker could see a substantial increase in fantasy production, making him an ideal option for DFS GPP formats.

San Antonio Spurs guard Lonnie Walker IV (knee) has been upgraded to probable for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He has been given four days to rest and recover from his right knee contusion. It doesn't sound like the Spurs have any plans to limit Walker in this game. His return should mean less minutes and touches for Josh Primo.

San Antonio Spurs shooting guard/small forward Lonnie Walker IV (illness) has been cleared to play in Friday's contest against the Jazz. Walker's absence lasted just one game, with his return giving the Spurs a key piece of their second unit back. The combination of having averaged just 21.7 minutes per outing across seven December contests and the Jazz's fourth-lowest points per game allowed mark (104.1) makes Walker a finicky DFS option. Keita Bates-Diop is the likeliest member of the bench squad to lose minutes, although all second group Spurs are set to cede shots to Walker as well.

San Antonio Spurs guard Lonnie Walker IV (illness) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Utah Jazz. He sat out of Wednesday's game due to the same reason, which resulted in Devin Vassell getting additional playing time. Keita Bates-Diop was also involved more, but Vassell is the better fantasy option between the two. Fantasy managers will have to check back on Friday for more information.

San Antonio Spurs guard Lonnie Walker IV (illness) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. It seems like there is a bug going around and hopefully this won't sideline Walker for too long. In the meantime, Devin Vassell could end up benefiting the most in the absence of Walker. He could have some deep league streaming value for Wednesday, but isn't a favorable DFS option right now.
