Spurs' Romeo Langford: Unlikely to play Wednesday
Rotowire
Langford (adductor) is unlikely to play Wednesday against the Lakers, Tom Osborn of the San Antonio Express-News reports.
Langford's minutes weren't limited during Monday's loss to the Trail Blazers, but he's dealing with left adductor tightness that will likely prevent him from suiting up Wednesday. Assuming he's sidelined, Malaki Branham, Josh Richardson and Doug McDermott could see increased run.

Spurs' Romeo Langford: Decent output Friday
Rotowire
Langford contributed 13 points (6-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt), six rebounds, five assists and one block over 26 minutes during Friday's 131-126 loss to the Clippers.
Langford was coming off back-to-back woeful performances, but he bounced back here and posted double-digit points for the fifth time across his last eight outings. Langford is averaging 9.0 points, 3.4 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game since jumping into a regular starting role earlier this month.

Spurs' Romeo Langford: Another ordinary performance
Rotowire
Langford finished with two points (1-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four rebounds and two assists in 17 minutes during Tuesday's 106-98 victory over the Nets.
Langford remained in the starting lineup Tuesday but once again came up empty in terms of tangible fantasy production. Despite starting the past eight games, he has barely put up top 300 value in 12-team leagues. He has played fewer than 20 minutes in four straight contests, so fantasy managers can avert their gaze when looking for difference-makers on the waiver wire.

Spurs' Romeo Langford: Reaches double figures again
Rotowire
Langford finished with 13 points (6-11 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one block across 28 minutes in Monday's 121-113 loss to the Grizzlies.
Langford picked up his third straight start Monday and again finished with a double-digit point total while finishing one assist shy of matching his season high. Through his first four NBA seasons, Langford hasn't shown an especially fantasy-friendly game, but he should be on the radar in deeper leagues he appears poised to handle a 25-to-30-minute role for the foreseeable future while Devin Vassell (knee) is likely out until around the All-Star break.

Spurs' Romeo Langford: Efficient night shooting in win
Rotowire
Langford logged 15 points (7-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one steal over 29 minutes during Friday's 121-109 win over Detroit.
Langford has been consistently knocking down shots of late, converting 54.2 percent of his attempts over the last three games. He's also likely to continue seeing a heightened volume of attempts with Devin Vassell set to undergo surgery and miss more than a month of action, making Langford a bit more interesting in some fantasy formats.

Spurs' Romeo Langford: Will maintain starting spot
Rotowire
Langford will keep a spot in the starting five while Devin Vassell (knee) is sidelined, Jeff Garcia of KENS 5 San Antonio reports.
Langford got his third start in the last four games Wednesday versus the Knicks, and it appears that's a trend that will continue until Vassell returns in mid-February. Langford can occasionally churn out a solid fantasy stat line, but he hasn't proven able to do so consistently enough at this juncture to warrant fantasy consideration in most formats.

Spurs' Romeo Langford: Joining first unit
Rotowire
Langford will enter the starting five for Thursday's game against the Knicks.

Spurs' Romeo Langford: Back to bench
Rotowire
Langford will come off the bench during Monday's game against the Nets.
Langford drew a pair of spot starts due to the absence of Devin Vassell (knee), but the former will revert to a bench role with Vassell back in the mix. Langford has scored in double figures in only two of his 11 appearances as a reserve this season.
Langford closed with 23 points (11-16 FG, 1-1 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and two steals over 28 minutes during Thursday's 122-115 win over the Knicks.
Langford was an unexpected savior Thursday, stepping into the starting lineup after Devin Vassell was ruled out with a knee injury. Langford produced a career-high 23 points after scoring a combined 11 points in his previous four outings. While this performance was impressive, fantasy managers should not go chasing him on the waiver wire given he was barely in the rotation prior to Thursday. At best, he could be streamed in if Vassell misses additional time.
Langford is starting Thursday's game against the Knicks.
Langford wasn't much of a factor in San Antonio's last contest Tuesday against the Thunder, but he'll get a chance to run with the first unit due to the absence of Devin Vassell (knee). Langford's last start took place Dec. 22 against the Pelicans, when he posted two points, two rebounds and one steal in 18 minutes of action.

Spurs' Romeo Langford: Squeezed out of rotation
Rotowire
Langford (coach's decision) went unused in Monday's 126-122 win over the Jazz.
After starting in each of his last five appearances, Langford has now failed to get off the bench in two straight contests. The fourth-year wing looks to be passed up in the Spurs' wing rotation by rookie Malaki Branham, who reached the 20-minute mark Monday for the fourth time in the past five contests.

Spurs' Romeo Langford: Starting role reaps very little
Rotowire
Langford totaled six points (2-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound, one assist and one block across 19 minutes during Monday's 124-105 victory over the Rockets.
Langford returned after a two-game absence, sliding back into the starting lineup. Unfortunately, that was where the good news ended as he was unable to deliver from a fantasy perspective. Despite having carved out a consistent role, Langford is simply too volatile to trust as anything but a prospective stream consideration.

Spurs' Romeo Langford: Might not play Monday
Rotowire
Langford has been listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Rockets due to stomach illness, independent NBA writer Matthew Tynan reports.
Langford missed the last two games with an ankle injury, but the Spurs are listing him on the latest injury report with a "stomach illness." With Josh Richardson (personal) already ruled out, Langford could step back into a fairly sizable role if he's able to take the floor. Prior to the ankle injury, Langford had started three straight games, averaging 11.0 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.0 blocks in that span (27.3 MPG).
