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. Apr 6 - 11:29 PM

Nando De Colo - G - Spurs

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.

Nando De Colo is playing through a bruise on his left biceps.

It's a minor concern for the rookie and shouldn't keep him out of action, so we're not going to be marking him on the injury report.

Nando De Colo - G - Spurs

The Spurs recalled Nando De Colo from the D-League on Saturday and he promptly scored 11 points in 24 minutes vs. the Cavaliers.

De Colo drained 3-of-4 shots from beyond the arc, teaming up with Manu Ginobili (14 points, 10 assist) in the second unit. As a consequence of De Colo's sudden return, Patty Mills got a DNP-CD and Gary Neal played two minutes.

San Antonio Spurs assign Nando De Colo and Aron Baynes to D-League.

The Spurs are preparing for Tony Parker's return, which cancels out the need to keep De Colo on the NBA roster. Baynes has been moving back and forth between the NBA and the D-League since signing with the Spurs in January.

Nando De Colo - G - Spurs

Nando De Colo scored three points in 14 minutes on Sunday, coming off the bench behind starters Cory Joseph and Danny Green.

The rookie guard started three games for Tony Parker earlier this season, and with Gary Neal (hamstring) sidelined we figured he'd start at PG, or at least play a big role, but Gregg Popovich thought otherwise. The Spurs rolled to an easy blowout win with De Colo in a bench role, and Neal made a surprise return tonight, which does nothing to improve De Colo's odds of breaking out this week.

Nando De Colo - G - Spurs

Nando De Colo scored zero points on 0-for-3 shooting with two rebounds and three assists in 12 minutes off the bench on Friday, but could see a big increase in minutes due to the Tony Parker ankle injury.

De Colo was ahead of Patty Mills (12 points, three rebounds, one assist, 14 minutes) in the rotation prior to tonight, and he was able to put up low-end numbers in 1-of-2 games in which he played 27 or more minutes this month. It's really hard to assess both players' value in a blowout against the Kings, particularly with Gary Neal still out, but if we have to pick a guy we're leaning toward De Colo because of his rank on the depth chart. Each of the three is worth a look for their respective skill sets, but none of them are must-add players without more clarity.

Nando De Colo - G - Spurs

Nando De Colo started for the second time this season on Monday, filling in for Tony Parker, who was out with a sore knee.

De Colo had nine points, two rebounds, seven assists, three steals and a 3-pointer on 3-of-11 shooting. He also played well in his other start back in November, but isn't worth picking up right now. Unlike teammates Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili, we don't get the sense Parker will get an extended rest with his injury. But if he does end up missing multiple games, De Colo could emerge as a second-half sleeper.

Nando De Colo will start for injured Tony Parker (knee) on Monday against the Bulls.

De Colo has been operating as the backup PG so he'll get the nod, but Patty Mills has had his name in trade rumors lately and profiles as a better fit. Gary Neal could also jump in on the action, and all three could turn around and do it again when the Spurs play on Wednesday.

Nando De Colo - G - Spurs

Nando DeColo played a bench-high 23 minutes in Monday's loss to the Thunder, scoring 14 points on 6-of-9 shooting with two rebounds, six assists, and one steal in 23 minutes.

Manu Ginobili was out and the game wasn't that close, but this type of line is why we've had our eye on his Dynasty value. In redraft leagues one would need to be in a massive format to give him a look.

Nando De Colo played a bench-high 21 minutes on Friday against the Rockets, scoring seven points on 3-of-6 shooting (including a three) with four rebounds, five assists, and one steal.

De Colo got some extra run in a game that wasn't competitive, and despite the mild preseason hype he hasn't shown much in the NBA this season. We'll need to see more before paying him much attention.
