Absent from the last Spurs match because of a knee contusion, Victor Wembanyama should once again be out against the Thunder this evening.
We already knew that Chet Holmgren would be unavailable for this Tuesday's Spurs – Thunder in the NBA Cup. We have just learned that Victor Wembanyama will probably also be on the sidelines.
The NBA's injury report indicates that Wemby is “doubtful”which means he has a high chance of missing the match. The cause is still this contusion on his right knee which has been bothering him since the match against the Lakers last Friday.
Rest assured, normally nothing serious for Victor, but Spurs prefer to play the card of caution.
