Sources: Spurs' Wembanyama out for a few weeks
SAN ANTONIO — Spurs star center Victor Wembanyama will be sidelined for a few weeks due to a left calf strain, sources told ESPN's Shams Charania on Monday.
The Spurs are erring on the side of caution in bringing back the franchise cornerstone, who underwent an MRI on Sunday. A source told ESPN that Wembanyama will be reevaluated in two to three weeks.
Listed as questionable early Sunday due to left calf tightness, Wembanyama was ruled out ahead of the tipoff for San Antonio's victory against the Sacramento Kings.
"Obviously, we've seen around this league recently, the calf-tightness thing is not something you want to take lightly," Spurs coach Mitch Johnson said Sunday. "Don't want to push it there."
