Dylan Harper (thumb) is not on the injury report for Sunday's game against the Trail Blazers.
www.nbcsports.comHere’s the latest on Dylan Harper’s injury status based on recent reporting:
- May 20–21, 2026: Harper's status was updated in playoff coverage after he exited Game 2 vs. Oklahoma City with a right-leg/hamstring-related issue. He was ruled out for the remainder of that game, and there was discussion about his availability for upcoming games depending on how his leg responded to treatment and testing [Sporting News, May 20–21, 2026].[3]
- Earlier in the 2025 season, Harper had been sidelined with a left calf strain (grade 1) and was progressing toward a return, with coaches indicating he was ramping up activities and no longer in a walking boot [Heavy.com, Nov 16, 2025; iNews/Zoombangla, Nov 16, 2025].[1][2]
- There were prior reports that Harper left Spurs games with calf-related injuries in November 2025, and later returned to on-court activities as he recovered, suggesting a cautious return-to-play trajectory [EssentiallySports, Nov 2, 2025; Heavy.com, Nov 16, 2025].[4][1]
Important notes
- The Spurs’ injury updates have consistently indicated Harper is monitored closely and returns are contingent on progressive ramp-up and absence of worsening symptoms; exact return dates have varied with each incident.[1][3]
- In playoff contexts, any update tends to come from team physicians and credible outlets, so I’d expect a formal update ahead of Spurs playoff games if there’s a meaningful change in status.[3]
