Spurs' Jayden Quaintance seeks additional procedure for knee injury

San Antonio Spurs draftee Jayden Quaintance announced on June 24, 2026, that he will need another procedure to address a persistent knee injury. Despite being selected 20th overall in the draft, Quaintance, who played only four games last season at Kentucky due to a torn ACL and meniscus, continues to experience pain in his knee. Spurs general manager Brian Wright expressed confidence in Quaintance's rehabilitation progress. The team will collaborate with Quaintance's representatives to outline a comprehensive rehab plan once he joins in San Antonio. The scheduled procedure remains undetermined as they work to alleviate the injury.
