The Spurs have exercised the third-year option on Wembanyama's contract Friday, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.

This is far from a shocking decision from the Spurs' front office, as Wembanyama is already the team's most important player in both the short and long term despite having played less than 100 games in the NBA in his career to this point. This move ensures Wembanyama will be under contract with the Spurs until the end of the 2025-26 season, and the Spurs will likely choose to sign him to a maximum extension after that.
