• Spurs' Victor Wembanyama: Will be rested Monday

  11H ago • By RotoWire

  Wembanyama (rest) will not play in Monday's preseason matchup against the Jazz, Tom Orsborn of the San Antonio Express-News reports. The Spurs planned to rest several regulars against Utah before the preseason began, so Wembanyama's absence appears to be a routine precaution rather than an injury-related concern. San Antonio will also sit Stephon Castle, De'Aaron Fox, Dylan Harper and Devin Vassell, among others. Wembanyama's next opportunity to play will come Wednesday against the Suns.

• Spurs' Victor Wembanyama: All-around production not enough

  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Wembanyama recorded 13 points (6-14 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, six assists, two blocks and one steal in 22 minutes during Saturday's 102-98 preseason loss to the Suns. Wembanyama filled the stat sheet Saturday, albeit in another losing effort during the preseason. The superstar big man tied for second on the club in scoring and rebounds while leading all players in assists. He also tied for the game-high mark in blocks. However, the 22-year-old struggled mightily from beyond the arc Saturday and is shooting 9-for-20 from the field through two preseason games.

• Spurs' Victor Wembanyama: Posts nine points in limited action

  4D ago • By RotoWire

  Wembanyama recorded nine points (3-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-4 FT), six rebounds, an assist and a block across 17 minutes in Thursday's 123-116 preseason loss to the Hawks. Wembanyama played a relatively modest role statistically, attempting just six shots while San Antonio limited its starters to first-half action. The abbreviated workload offered little reason for concern as San Antonio eased its franchise centerpiece into preseason competition. He should be one of the first players off the board in every fantasy draft and is expected to be a massive contributor on both ends of the court for the Spurs once the regular season begins Oct. 20 against the Thunder.

• Spurs' Victor Wembanyama: Dominates Sweden on Sunday

  08/31/2026 • By RotoWire

  Wembanyama registered 18 points (6-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 5-8 FT), eight rebounds, two assists, one steal and four blocks in 29 minutes during France's 84-69 win over Sweden in Sunday's FIBA World Cup qualifier. The superstar big man led France in both scoring and rebounding Sunday, helping pick up the slack left behind by the absence of Rudy Gobert. Wembanyama, the NBA's reigning Defensive Player of the Year, averaged 25.0 points, 11.5 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 3.1 blocks and 1.0 steals per game across 64 regular-season appearances in 2025-26, and he's likely to be either the first or second player off the board, perhaps behind only Nikola Jokic, in most fantasy drafts for the 2026-27 campaign.

• Spurs' Victor Wembanyama: Records another double-double

  06/14/2026 • By RotoWire

  Wembanyama finished with 19 points (7-19 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 14 rebounds, two assists and five blocks across 38 minutes in the 94-90 loss to the Knicks in Game 5 of the NBA Finals on Saturday. Wembanyama had a double-double in Game 5, his 12th of the postseason. However, his efforts weren't enough to lead San Antonio to a victory and extend the series. With the Spurs falling short of a championship, the team will look forward to the 2026-27 campaign. There will likely be some changes to the roster, though the focus will be on surrounding Wembanyama with players who complement his style of play. It's scary to think just how good the 22-year-old can be moving ahead, considering he averaged a career-high 25.0 points with 11.5 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 3.1 blocks and 1.0 steals over 29.2 minutes in 64 regular-season appearances. Without question, Wembanyama will continue to be in the MVP conversation, assuming he can stay healthy.
