Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich said after Saturday's 126-113 win over the Warriors that Wembanyama (ankle) is expected to play in Monday's rematch with Golden State in San Antonio, Jeff Garcia of KENS 5 San Antonio reports.
Wembanyama has missed the Spurs' last two games with a right ankle sprain, but the club always envisioned him making his return to action Monday, barring a setback. The team should release its initial injury report for Monday's game at some point Sunday, but expect Wembanyama to be listed as probable for that contest, if not removed from the report entirely.
