Spurs' Lindy Waters: Iffy for Tuesday
Rotowire
Waters (illness) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Celtics.
Waters is mostly an emergency depth option for the Spurs. While he's appeared in six straight games, which coincides with Harrison Barnes' (ankle) absence, Waters' availability won't make a big impact in fantasy hoops.

Spurs' Lindy Waters: Gets garbage-time run
Rotowire
Waters played the final 7:36 of Thursday's 126-110 win over the Nets, finishing with six points (2-3 FG, 2-3 3Pt).
Following a recent seven-game absence due to a hyperextended left knee, Waters had been available for a third straight contest, but Thursday marked the first occasion that he played. The Spurs turned to Waters in garbage time of the blowout, with the veteran wing nailing a pair of three-pointers during his time on the court. Though he's healthy again, Waters is unlikely to be a regular factor in the rotation while the Spurs are at full strength.

Rotowire
Waters is out for Wednesday's game against the Thunder with a left knee hyperextension.
Waters faces a short turnaround if he wants to be available for Thursday's tilt in Dallas. However, the forward has totaled a mere 14 minutes across his last four appearances, so Waters' absence doesn't appear to shake up the San Antonio frontcourt mix.

Spurs' Lindy Waters: Depth role continues
Rotowire
Waters accumulated two points (1-1 FG) and one assist over six minutes during Saturday's 126-123 victory over the Timberwolves.
Waters has yet to record double-digit points this season, averaging just 2.2 points per game through 25 regular-season appearances. He has exceeded 15 minutes only once, serving as nothing more than an emergency piece. At this stage, Waters holds no real fantasy value.

Rotowire
Waters ended Wednesday's 132-119 win over the Lakers with one rebound in one minute.
Waters moved back into the rotation, albeit for one minute during garbage time. It's been a quiet season for Waters, typically seeing the court either in garbage time or when someone is dealing with foul issues. In his 12 appearances, Waters is averaging just 2.1 points in 6.9 minutes.

Spurs' Lindy Waters: Ho-hum season continues
Rotowire
Waters recorded three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two rebounds and one steal across six minutes during Friday's 130-117 loss to the Cavaliers.
Waters continues to be a non-factor for the Spurs, having exceeded double-digit playing time only twice through his first 11 appearances. Based on what we have seen thus far, it's difficult to see him being an every-night part of the rotation once the team is back to full health.

Spurs' Lindy Waters: Drills two treys in debut
Rotowire
Waters (eyes) finished with six points (2-2 FG, 2-2 3Pt) and one rebound in 14 minutes off the bench in Wednesday's 118-116 loss to the Lakers.
Waters -- who had missed San Antonio's first six games while recovering from a bilateral eye procedure -- was one of three Spurs players to make his season debut Wednesday, as Jeremy Sochan (wrist) and Kelly Olynyk (heel) were also cleared to suit up. While the Spurs are without De'Aaron Fox (hamstring) and Dylan Harper (calf) for the foreseeable future, Waters looks like he'll have a chance to stick around in the San Antonio rotation, but he'll be a prime candidate to see his limited minutes get cut once the team draws closer to full health. Waters is a perimeter threat with a 36.8 percent conversion rate from three-point range for his career, but he's historically offered little help in other categories.

Spurs' Lindy Waters: Available Wednesday
Rotowire
Waters (eye) has been cleared to play in Wednesday's game against the Lakers.
Waters will make his season debut after an eye injury kept him out of the start of the 2025-26 campaign. However, he is not expected to be a big part of the rotation, meaning his debut won't have much fantasy significance.
