Last Tuesday, Victor Wembanyama went out of Game 2 early in the second quarter with a concussion. He has since been in the NBA concussion protocols. The Spurs have been working with the NBA to monitor Victor’s progress toward recovery. They are also in the process of evaluations to detemin when and if Wemby should return during this timeline of this series.
On Thursday, he flew with the team. On Friday, he worked out, participated in shoot arounds, and yet did not play once the time came.
Per league
protocol, 24 hours after a player sustains a concussion, he can begin the process of returning to play. If symptom-free, he can be cleared to return by team doctors in consultation with a league policy director after 48 hours without full participation.
Thirty minutes before tipoff for Game 3, the forward warmed up at Moda Center.
“He’s progressing every day,” Harper said. “All we can really do is pray for him and hope the trajectory he’s (on) keeps happening.”
Expect a game time decision to Wembanyama’s availability.
