Wembanyama (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Clippers, NBA reporter Matthew Tynan reports.
Wembanyama will be held out of the second leg of this back-to-back set due to injury management, and his next opportunity to play will come Saturday in Denver. With the star big man sidelined, Luke Kornet will likely get the starting nod, while Mason Plumlee and Kelly Olynyk are candidates to see increased minutes off the bench.
