PORTLAND, Ore. — The San Antonio Spurs stated Victor Wembanyama is not available for Friday night’s Game 3 against Portland in the teams’ first-round playoff series while he continues to recover from a concussion.
Wembanyama — the league’s first unanimous Defensive Player of the Year and one of three finalists for the Most Valuable Player award — went down in the second quarter of Game 2 on Tuesday night and did not return.
Portland won the game 106-103 in San Antonio. The series is tied heading into the third game.
“Victor is not playing tonight. Obviously, there’s a lot that goes into that, but he’s doing well and progressing,” Spurs coach Mitch Johnson stated.

Wembanyama traveled to Portland with the Spurs on Thursday afternoon while continuing to complete the steps mandated by the league’s concussion protocol. Earlier, he was listed as questionable for Friday’s game.
Players must clear a series of benchmarks before being cleared for play under the concussion protocol. The results are compared to baseline neurological evaluations players take at the start of the season.
Any extended absence by Wembanyama could be a massive blow to San Antonio, which finished with the league’s second-best record behind the versatile 7-foot-4 center from France. They were 12-6 in the regular season without Wembanyama.
Wembanyama averaged 25 points, 11.5 rebounds, 3.1 assists and a league-best 3.1 blocks this season. He was also with his teammates Wednesday evening, when they all donned cowboy hats and surprised teammate Keldon Johnson after he was unveiled as the league’s Sixth Man of the Year.
