Tre Jones pushes his assist total to 6 with that feed to Devin Vassell for a 3. Jones has got 2 steals, but it seems like more. – 9:27 PM

Devin Vassell looks like he’s taking a leap for the Spurs.
San Antonio is empowering him to do way more off the dribble after a ton of progress last season. pic.twitter.com/jNYI54Yluu – 12:01 PM

The triple take: Spurs 114, 76ers 105
1. Devin Vassell is ready for the next step.
2. Jakob Poeltl was courageous, again.
3. Did the 76ers not get Adam Silver’s anti-tanking memo?

Devin Vassell after tonight’s win in Philly: “It gives a lot of confidence for us. We’re a young group, so at the end of the day, it’s going to help us out. We’ll celebrate this win but right now at the end of the day we have 79 more games.” – 10:28 PM

Devin Vassell and Keldon Johnson look awesome. Vassell has just straight up taken a huge leap in terms of pace and handle again. Keldon was good already but the jumper looks even more consistently and confident than it was. This is a legit starting wing pair at 22/23 years old. – 9:37 PM

Sixers trail the Spurs 85-77 heading into the 4th quarter. Devin Vassell and Keldon Johnson have 20 each for the Spurs. Embiid has 26 on 9-17 shooting for the Sixers. After committing 5 TOs in the first quarter the Spurs have committed just 5 in the last two. Phillies trail 1-0. – 7:54 PM

Sixers trail Spurs 54-51 at halftime.
Still doesn’t feel like his touch is there, but Joel Embiid was active on both ends: 13 points, nine free-throw attempts and engaged defense.
Impressive half from Devin Vassell (20 points, 8-10 FG) and Keldon Johnson (10 points, 4-8 FG). – 7:14 PM

The Spurs are leading the 76ers 54-51 at half, on the road, on the second night of a back-to-back.
Devin Vassell has 20 points. At halftime. He is 8 of 10 from the field and 4 of 5 from 3-point range. Clearly, he’s found his shot. – 7:13 PM

More on this storyline
Derek Bodner: Final: Sixers lose to the Spurs 114-105, falling to 0-3 on the season. Embiid had 40 on 14-25 shooting, but Harden shot just 4-18 and the Sixers’ perimeter defense was burned by Vassell (22) and Johnson (21) as the Spurs shot 16-38 from deep. -via Twitter @DerekBodnerNBA / October 22, 2022
The Spurs have exercised their 2023/24 team options on former lottery picks Devin Vassell and Joshua Primo, the team announced. -via Hoops Rumors / October 11, 2022
Tom Orsborn: Poeltl and Vassell aren’t injured. Pop is just spreading out the minutes. Keldon Johnson (shoulder) and Josh Primo (knee) are also out again. They’ve missed the last 3 games, but Pop said they could return as soon as Tuesday in Salt Lake City. -via Twitter @tom_orsborn / October 9, 2022
