The injury occurred as he was attempting to secure a rebound under the basket and his left knee bent.\n\nAfter the game, Wembanyama reported that he suffered a hyperextension and that initial tests revealed no other problems. He will undergo further examinations on Thursday.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>I was confident. I was about to return to the game. They had to stop me. It was just a hyperextension, so it should be minimal. Tomorrow we have to do everything possible to verify that everything is okay.<\/p><cite>Victor Wembanyama<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nWembanyama added: &#8220;I hope to be back in the next game.&#8221;\n\nWembanyama&#8217;s injury occurred at 10:32 of the end of the game, with the Spurs losing 106-92, while fighting for a rebound with Karl-Anthony Towns and Jordan Clarkson. He immediately grabbed his left knee after the play. His teammate Stephon Castle helped him up, and the Frenchman headed to the locker room on his own.\n\nWembanyama appeared to tell Castle &#8220;I&#8217;m fine&#8221; as the guard helped him up and seemed to convey the same message to the crowd, as he limped off the court.\n\nWembanyama returned to the bench with 1:22 remaining, wearing team warm-up gear, but did not re-enter the game.\n\nSpurs coach Mitch Johnson said that the fact that Wembanyama finished the game on the bench gave him hope that the injury was not serious.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>I haven&#8217;t been able to speak with the medical staff yet, but I think I saw what everyone else saw. Obviously, he finished the game on the bench with his teammates. So I think that made me feel good.<\/p><cite>Mitch Johnson<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nWembanyama finished the game with 31 points and 13 rebounds in 24 minutes on the court.\n\nSo far this season, Wembanyama has missed 12 games due to a left calf strain. He returned to the lineup on December 13 and was averaging 24.0 points, 11.7 rebounds, and 3.0 blocks before Wednesday&#8217;s game.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Victor Wembanyama Leaves Game with Knee Injury The San Antonio Spurs star, Victor Wembanyama, left the court in the final quarter of Wednesday night&#8217;s game against the New York Knicks, where the Spurs secured a victory with a score of 134-132.
