De Colo suffered a hand injury Saturday in Ukraine and will be unable to compete for his national team France in the FIBA World Cup this summer, Catch and Shoot reports. |
De Colo won't be a factor in fantasy this upcoming season since he decided to sign a contract in Russia with CSKA Moskow. While it's still possible that he makes a comeback stateside in the future, his hand injury should be long healed by then. |
Mon Jul 7 2014 | 13:56 | Nando De Colo signs in Moscow |
Nando De Colo agreed on a deal with CSKA-Moscow. |
He was a garbage-time special for the Spurs for a few seasons before being shipped to the Raptors at the trade deadline. De Colo's playing time in the NBA may be over and he'll be able to get some game action overseas. |

Sun Jul 6 2014 | 11:38 | Nando De Colo receives $4M offer from CSKA |
Raptors backup guard Nando De Colo has reportedly received a $4 million, two-year offer to come play for Russian powerhouse CSKA Moscow. |
The Raptors made a qualifying offer to Nando of $1.8 million, but it wouldn't be shocking to him bolt for the type of money CSKA Moscow is offering. De Colo averaged 3.1 points, 1.3 rebounds, and 1.6 assists through nine minutes of action with the Raptors last season. |

Sat Jun 28 2014 | 12:14 | Nando De Colo gets a qualifying offer |
The Raptors made a qualifying offer to Nando De Colo to make him a restricted free agent. |
He was traded by the Spurs this past season, so apparently De Colo was really holding them back. Kidding aside, he's unlikely to see a deal much larger than the qualifying offer of about $1.8 million. |

Sun Feb 23 2014 | 16:54 | Nando De Colo is available for Sunday |
Nando De Colo will be available to face the Magic on Sunday. |
He's going to be the third point guard with the two guys ahead of him playing well in their roles, so there's no reason to think De Colo will be a factor. He can be ignore in all leagues. |

Fri Feb 21 2014 | 15:11 | Nando De Colo still having visa issues |
Nando De Colo is dealing with visa issues and is not expected to be available until Sunday. |
The Raptors have a should-be All-Star and a solid backup in Greivis Vasquez, so there's no need for De Colo to hurry. He has no fantasy value. |

Sat Feb 8 2014 | 21:52 | Nando De Colo plays well off the bench |
Nando De Colo played 28 minutes off the bench against the Bobcats on Saturday with 15 points, two boards, two assists and one 3-pointer. |
He was sporting his mask due to a nasal fracture on Thursday and he's been effective since the injury. De Colo has played at least 27 minutes in each of his last two games, but he's not involved enough in the offense to be worth a pickup in most formats. |

Nando De Colo suffered an injury to his face in the second quarter and went to the locker room. |
He caught an elbow to the face from Andrei Kirilenko and was down on the court for a couple minutes before the training staff tended to him. De Colo may be getting further evaluation in the locker room and the team should have an update shortly. |

Thu Feb 6 2014 | 18:52 | De Colo, Belinelli starters in small lineup |
Nando De Colo and Marco Belinelli will move into the Spurs' starting lineup on Thursday, with both Tony Parker (back) and Tim Duncan (rest) unavailable. |
The Spurs are rolling out an ultra-small lineup with De Colo, Belinelli, Cory Joseph, Danny Green and Tiago Splitter. They're facing a Nets team which also features a small lineup with Paul Pierce at PF and we expect plenty of unorthodox lineups throughout the course of the game from Gregg Popovich. |

Wed Jan 29 2014 | 21:54 | Nando DeColo starting vs. Bulls |
Nando De Colo is starting against the Bulls on Wednesday. |
He was pretty much out of the rotation up until the second half of January. Fantasy owners probably shouldn't trust anything coach Gregg Popovich does with his lineups excluding his studs. Although, Marco Belinelli and Boris Diaw should get some run off the bench. |

Sun Jan 19 2014 | 21:31 | Nando De Colo scores season-high 13 points |
Nando De Colo scored a season-high 13 points in the Spurs' lopsided win vs. Milwaukee, sinking two 3-pointers with four rebounds, three assists and two steals. |
This game had too many 'fluke' factors to alter De Colo's outlook, including Tony Parker's absence with a shin injury and the Spurs' 24-point lead after three quarters. |

Sun Jan 12 2014 | 15:12 | Nando De Colo called up to the Spurs |
Nando De Colo was recalled by the Spurs on Sunday. |
He's been sent down to the D-League five times this year and will come back up. This raises the question of the Manu Ginobili's availability for Sunday, as well. De Colo has no fantasy value. |

Mon Oct 14 2013 | 09:21 | Nando De Colo struggling in Spurs preseason |
Nando De Colo has struggled this preseason, and he finished Sunday's game with five points, two assists and two turnovers in 12 minutes. |
The backup PG spot is hotly contested between Cory Joseph and Patty Mills, and DeColo is on the outside looking in. Gregg Popovich's rotations change often enough that DeColo could easily join the rotation, but his fantasy outlook for 2013-14 is bleak. |

Sun Sep 15 2013 | 18:12 | Nando De Colo scores 12 in FIBA loss |
Nando De Colo scored 12 points on 5-of-11 shooting in 23 minutes on Sunday, to go along with two boards and three steals in France's 77-65 loss to Serbia. |
No one on France's team had a particularly good game, but the team came in third in their group and will advance to the quarterfinals on Wednesday. Once the tournament is over, De Colo will head into training camp to battle with Cory Joseph for the backup point guard spot with the Spurs. Even if he wins the job, he only averaged 7.3 points and 4.3 assists in 6 starts last season, so he offers minimal fantasy value. |

Thu Aug 1 2013 | 17:17 | Report: Nando De Colo suffers minor injury |
Nando De Colo suffered an undisclosed injury while practicing with the French national team, according to a French media report. |
The injury appears to be minor since De Colo is still expected to participate in France's exhibition game against Finland on Friday. De Colo, who complained about his postseason playing time, will likely battle Cory Joseph and Patty Mills in training camp for playing time behind Tony Parker. |

Fri May 24 2013 | 15:51 | Nando De Colo not happy with playing time |
Nando De Colo recently complained about his lack of playing time in the playoffs. |
De Colo has fallen behind Gary Neal and Cory Joseph on the depth chart. He has appeared in just three of the Spurs' 12 playoff games, with those appearances coming in strict garbage time. "Next year I'm under contract with San Antonio, and there is no reflection or having to say 'I'm going back to Europe.' I will continue to work," De Colo said. "We'll see with the Spurs if something must be done after the playoffs or not. It's frustrating not to play but there is nothing more to think." |

Sat Apr 6 2013 | 23:29 | De Colo scores six points filling in at PG |
Nando De Colo had six points, seven rebounds, three assists and three turnovers in a fill-in start for Tony Parker (neck) on Saturday. |
De Colo has emerged as Gregg Popovich's preferred starting PG in Parker and Manu Ginobili's absence, with Gary Neal (14 minutes) and Cory Joseph (31 minutes) mopping up extra minutes off the bench. It's a crapshoot guessing which guy will go off on a given night, and with Parker day-to-day most owners would be better off avoiding them. |

Wed Apr 3 2013 | 22:57 | Nando De Colo has nice line in start |
Making a spot-start at point guard, Nando De Colo had eight points, seven rebounds and six assists in Wednesday's win over the Magic. |
Tony Parker took a Gregg Popovich prescribed rest day, so De Colo played 28 quality minutes. But Parker is fully expected to play on Thursday, so there's no reason to make an add here. The Spurs' next back-to-back set comes on Apr. 14/15. |
