SAN ANTONIO SPURS star Victor Wembanyama is expected to miss the rest of the NBA season after being diagnosed with deep vein thrombosis in his right shoulder, the team said Thursday.
The announcement brings a premature end to another outstanding campaign by Wembanyama, who earned Rookie of the Year honors last season after being taken first overall in the NBA draft. “He took the NBA All-Star Game seriously,” Curry said. “He was showing his unique skill set all across the board.” He helped France capture the silver medal at last year’s Paris Olympics, where they fell to the United States in the final.
Even with the arrival of high-scoring guard De’Aaron Fox from Sacramento at the trade deadline, the Spurs will likely suffer without their centerpiece, who was on track for defensive player of the year.
