Heavy blow for NBA club San Antonio Spurs. Your Star Victor Wembanyama gets a painful diagnosis after an examination.

The French basketball star Victor Wembanyama is expected to be missing the San Antonio Spurs for the rest of the NBA season. As the team from Texas announced, the 21-year-old was diagnosed with thrombosis in the right shoulder.

The Spurs do not assume that the French center will be on the floor again in the current season 2024/2025. The injury was found after his return from the All-Star game in San Francisco.

Wembanyama is already one of the most formative players in the league. The 2.24 meter -tall center has been established as a top performer in no time. With France, he was in the Paris Olympic final last year, but was defeated there to the US team.

In the current season, the trace star convinces with strong figures: he has achieved an average of 24.3 points so far and won eleven rebounds per game.

As a twelve of the Western Conference, San Antonio is quite significantly behind tenth place, which entitles you to participate in the play-ins. Without their superstar, the Spurs should have little chance of making the leap into the Post Season.

It was only in January that Wembanyama caused a sensation in his home country when San Antonio played two season games in Paris. In the 140: 110 victory against the Indiana Pacers, Wembanyama shone with 30 points and eleven rebounds.
