Wembanyama`s doubtful status for the Spurs vs. Suns game raises concerns for San Antonio`s playoff hopes.

Victor Wembanyama, the All-Star center for the San Antonio Spurs, is listed as doubtful for the upcoming game against the Phoenix Suns on February 20, 2025, due to an unspecified illness. His uncertain status has been consistent across recent reports, making his participation a game-time decision.

The matchup is set to tip off at 9:30 PM ET at the Moody Center and will be broadcast on TNT, TruTV, and Max. Despite their struggles this season, the Suns are favored by 2.5 points. Wembanyama`s absence would be a significant blow for the Spurs, who have relied heavily on his impressive averages of 24.3 points, 11.0 rebounds, and 3.7 assists per game.

While Wembanyama`s illness is not deemed a long-term issue, it could impact the Spurs` chances against the Suns, who are looking to improve their 26-28 record and secure a postseason spot. The Suns will also be without Cody Martin, sidelined with a sports hernia. The projected starting lineup for the Suns includes Tyus Jones, Devin Booker, Ryan Dunn, Kevin Durant, and Nick Richards, while the Spurs may feature Chris Paul, De`Aaron Fox, Devin Vassell, Harrison Barnes, and potentially Wembanyama if cleared to play.
