Victor Wembanyama is out for the season due to deep vein thrombosis, impacting the Spurs` performance.

Victor Wembanyama, the San Antonio Spurs` star rookie, has been ruled out for the remainder of the 2024-25 NBA season due to deep vein thrombosis in his right shoulder. The 21-year-old had been enjoying a standout rookie campaign, averaging 24.3 points, 11.0 rebounds, and 3.7 assists per game, while shooting 47.6% from the field and 35.2% from beyond the arc. His defensive prowess was evident as he led the league with 4.0 blocks per game.

The Spurs, currently holding a 24-32 record, face significant challenges ahead, especially with an upcoming matchup against the Houston Rockets on February 26 at the Toyota Center. Wembanyama`s absence will require the team to address rebounding issues and find ways to compensate for his substantial contributions on both ends of the court.

Despite this setback, the Spurs remain optimistic about Wembanyama`s recovery and potential return for the 2025-26 season. The NBA community and fans are eagerly awaiting updates on his health and future performance.
