Wembanyama’s Season Performance
We’re looking at him missing the rest of the regular season. I mean, you’re reaction to this pretty big news here, yeah and I was attending the game tonight as a fan to watch them play against the Phoenix Suns and then call the game on tomorrow and you’re right, I’m blown away. I’m shocked because at the NBA Allstar Weekend, he looked good; he didn’t seem like he had any issues, so this just came out of nowhere. You know, first the Luca trade with Anthony Davis in the middle of the night and now all of a sudden, the most unexpected thing that I thought.
Analyst Reaction
I would hear on a Thursday afternoon is Victor wi minama, especially after watching him for two consecutive days at the uh, NBA Allstar Weekend festivities. Um, like, nothing was wrong with him. He played hard in the game. He looked excited, but when they announced that he was a game-time decision for tonight’s.
Understanding Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)
I just thought you know, maybe not tonight but definitely not the rest of the season yeah and we’re obviously still learning more about this injury Deep vein thrombosis occurs when a blood clot forms in one of the major um arteries in the body, one of the veins.
Impact on the Spurs
I should say so we’re going to have Marty Jero hopefully in a little bit just to help us with the medical side of this, but Avery, when you look at the basketball side of this, Wimy has reinvigorated this Spurs team, and we were just talking.
