Spurs Star Wembanyama Ruled Out of Clippers Clash

The Spurs are prioritizing Wembanyama’s health as he chases major awards, and he now has little margin to reach the NBA’s 65-game threshold.

  • On Thursday, the San Antonio Spurs ruled center Victor Wembanyama out against the Los Angeles Clippers due to right ankle injury management.
  • Following his 41-point, 18-rebound performance in 29 minutes Wednesday against the Golden State Warriors, the Spurs prioritize recovery on the second night of a back-to-back.
  • Wembanyama has appeared in 62 games this season, leaving little margin for error as he chases the NBA's 65-game minimum required for postseason awards eligibility.
  • In Wembanyama's absence, Luke Kornet, center, will likely start, though the Spurs maintain a 10-5 record without their French superstar this season.
  • The San Antonio Spurs currently hold the second seed in the Western Conference with a 58-18 record, remaining two games behind the Oklahoma City Thunder.
