Wembanyama still out with knee injury


Victor Wembanyama is going to get at least a few more days off to deal with his sore left knee.

The San Antonio Spurs ruled Wembanyama out for their game Saturday night against the Portland Trail Blazers, citing his knee soreness. Wembanyama missed the Spurs' game against Indiana on Friday.

Saturday's game will be the 14th that Wembanyama misses this season. Under NBA rules, players need to play in 65 of the 82 regular-season games to be eligible for most postseason awards — meaning Wembanyama could be in danger of not being on those ballots if he misses more than 17 contests.
