Kornet (ankle) is available for Monday's game against the Pelicans.

EDGE Analysis

Kornet will shed his questionable tag after missing Friday's loss to Cleveland due to a left ankle issue. With the 30-year-old center back in action, Bismack Biyombo is expected to slide back to the second unit. Over his last five outings, Kornet has averaged 6.6 points, 6.4 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 2.8 blocks in 27.2 minutes per contest.

Kornet (ankle) is questionable for Monday's game against New Orleans, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kornet was held out of Friday's loss to Cleveland due to the left ankle issue and is in jeopardy of missing his second consecutive contest. If the big man joins Victor Wembanyama (calf) on the sidelines again, Jeremy Sochan, Bismack Biyombo and Kelly Olynyk are candidates for increased playing time.

Kornet (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Cavaliers, Jeff McDonald of the San Antonio Express-News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kornet has been on a tear defensively, racking up 14 blocks and three steals over his last six games. He's drawn nine straight starts in Victor Wembanyama's (calf) absence, but with both big men sidelined, Kelly Olynyk and Bismack Biyombo are likely going to play bigger roles. Jeremy Sochan could also play some small-ball five. Kornet's injury is labeled as soreness, so it appears minor, and his next chance to suit up will come Monday in New Orleans.

Kornet is questionable to play Friday in Cleveland due to left ankle soreness, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Spurs have had a rather intensive travel schedule over the past week, playing four games in six nights, and all the miles are beginning to take a toll on the 30-year-old veteran. If Kornet does need to take a maintenance day Friday, that would open up some more minutes for Jeremy Sochan and Kelly Olynyk.

Kornet tallied five points (2-3 FG, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, four assists and three blocks over 28 minutes during the Spurs' 114-112 win over the Magic on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Kornet followed up his five-block performance Tuesday against the Grizzlies with another three rejections Wednesday, which included his block on Franz Wagner's layup attempt in the final second of the fourth quarter to seal the win for the Spurs. Kornet has started in the Spurs' last nine games in the absence of Victor Wembanyama (calf), and while the former's scoring output has been limited, he's provided fantasy value on the boards and as a shot blocker. Over that nine-game span, Kornet has averaged 6.6 points, 6.2 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 2.1 blocks over 26.7 minutes per game.

Kornet ended with four points (1-4 FG, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, four assists, five blocks and one steal across 28 minutes during Tuesday's 126-119 victory over the Grizzlies.

EDGE Analysis

The five rejections were a season high for Kornet, and just one off his regular-season career high. The veteran center has started eight straight games in place of Victor Wembanyama (calf), and while he's scored in double digits only twice, he's been a fairly consistent contributor on the glass and at the rim, averaging 6.8 points, 6.1 boards, 2.5 assists and 2.0 blocks in 26.5 minutes a contest.

Kornet accumulated five points (2-4 FG, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and two assists across 23 minutes during Thursday's 135-126 victory over Atlanta.

EDGE Analysis

Despite the absence of Victor Wembanyama (calf), Kornet hasn't been able to capitalize on his newfound opportunity after a great start to the campaign. Over his last two starts, Kornet produced just 2.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 0.5 steals in 24.0 minutes per contest. His opportunity in the short term is massive, so it's not a bad idea for fantasy managers to keep rolling the dice on him.

Kornet contributed 13 points (5-5 FG, 3-4 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist and three blocks across 28 minutes during Sunday's 123-110 win over the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

Victor Wembanyama (calf) was held out of the lineup, so Kornet made his first start of the season and produced his second double-double of 2025-26 in only his sixth game. The veteran center could have some fantasy intrigue in the short term if Wembanyama misses any further time, but Kornet is making a good case for an increased role in the frontcourt regardless.

Kornet will start Sunday's game against the Kings, Matt George of ABC 10 Sacramento reports.

EDGE Analysis

Victor Wembanyama (calf) will miss his first game of the campaign Sunday, but he's considered day-to-day. Kornet has been productive through five games this season, posting averages of 9.6 points, 5.6 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 0.8 blocks in 22.0 minutes per contest.

Kornet racked up 16 points (6-6 FG, 4-6 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and one block in 20 minutes during Monday's 121-117 victory over the Bulls.

EDGE Analysis

Kornet returned from a seven-game absence as a result of an ankle injury, scoring a season-high 16 points. With Devin Vassell exiting the game due to a migraine, the Spurs opted to go with a big lineup, playing Kornet alongside Victor Wembanyama. While this is a positive for Kornet's overall value, it doesn't guarantee extended minutes on a nightly basis. However, he is worth monitoring closely, even in standard formats.
