San Antonio Spurs phenom Victor Wembanyama missed Game 3 of San Antonio’s first-round series against the Portland Trail Blazers. Will he suit up in Game 4?
Wembanyama suffered a concussion on Tuesday, April 21 when he stumbled on a drive, leading to his face slamming into the court.
He lay on the floor for a few moments and appeared to lose his balance as he tried to get up. Trainers rushed over to examine him, and Wembanyama eventually rose to his feet and jogged to the locker room. The injury happened in the second quarter, and the Spurs ruled him out for the second half.
The Spurs eventually lost that game, 106-103, though San Antonio bounced back in Game 3 on Friday, April 24 to take a 2-1 series lead.
But with Game 4 scheduled for Sunday, April 26, Wembanyama’s status will loom large ahead of tip-off.
