The NBA world was delivered a jarring update Thursday when the San Antonio Spurs announced that star second-year player Victor Wembanyama will miss the remainder of the 2024–25 season with deep vein thrombosis in his right shoulder. San Antonio reportedly caught the issue after reports of heavy fatigue from the big man, even after time off during the All-Star break.
