Wembanyama Suffers Concussion in Spurs’ Loss to Portland
The San Antonio Spurs suffered a surprising 106-103 defeat against the Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday evening, with the top story emerging from a significant injury to star rookie Victor Wembanyama. During the second quarter, Wembanyama attempted to evade a play involving Jrue Holiday when he stumbled and fell heavily, impacting his face. Following the fall, Wembanyama remained on the court for a period, exhibiting signs of distress.
After attempting to rise, he displayed unsteady movement, resembling a boxer after a knockdown. Medical personnel immediately attended to him, and he subsequently left the game and did not return. Subsequent examination revealed that Wembanyama had sustained a concussion.
Given the nature of the injury and previous experiences with similar incidents, medical staff anticipate he will require time in concussion protocol. Experts believe his absence could extend beyond a single game, potentially impacting his availability during the series against Portland, which is currently tied 1-1 and scheduled to last at least five games. Victor Wembanyama was ruled out for the remainder of the contest.

I was so worried about Harry Kane – hopefully, he’s okay after that fall.
What is the extent of Harry Kane’s injury?
