Spurs’ Victor Wembanyama out for the remainder of the season with deep vein thrombosis in his shoulder
This is a serious issue but one Brandon Ingram bounced back from. Wemby will not be eligible for DPOY or All-NBA now, he has played 46 games.

Wemby missing the rest of the season does not seem like great draft news for the Rockets.
1. Spurs were just a game back in the loss column of the Suns (Rockets control Phoenix’s pick)
2. Spurs likely tank from here and improve their draft slot/future – 1:13 PM

Per source, to @TheAthletic, Victor Wembanyama had experienced low energy lately that was causing concern.

Re: Victor Wembanyama: A deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a clot that develops in one of the major veins of the body, usually in the lower extremity. Brandon Ingram also developed a DVT in his shoulder, missing the final 19 games of the 2018-19 season. – 12:54 PM
