Spurs' Victor Wembanyama: Could return Saturday
San Antonio Spurs head coach Mitch Johnson said Wednesday that there's "very much" a chance that Victor Wembanyama (calf) will return for Saturday's NBA Cup Semifinals game against the Thunder, Jared Weiss of The Athletic reports.Wembanyama has missed 12 straight games with a strained left calf, but he's been a full participant in practice recently. Johnson also said that Wembanyama had "a very good day" Wednesday. The Spurs have gone 10-2 without the star center, but he'd offer a massive boost against a Thunder team that's been nearly unbeatable. Even if Wembanyama is cleared to face OKC, he'd likely have his minutes monitored due to the lengthy absence and touchy nature of the injury.

Spurs' Victor Wembanyama: Back at practice, return date TBD
Victor Wembanyama (calf) was a full participant during Sunday's practice, Jeff McDonald of the San Antonio Express-News reports.Wembanyama hasn't played since Nov. 14 due to a left calf strain but appears to be nearing a return to game action. McDonald previously relayed that Wembanyama appeared unlikely to play at all during the NBA Cup consolation schedule, which would've ruled the superstar out for Monday's game in New Orleans and Wednesday's road matchup against the Lakers. However, after Wembanyama participated in Sunday's practice, McDonald is reporting that the third-year phenom can be considered "iffy" for Wednesday's contest, while still being unlikely to play Monday. While the update is encouraging for Wembanyama, it's still far from clear when he'll suit up again. Following the two NBA Cup games, the San Antonio Spurs return to action at home against the Wizards on Dec. 17.

Spurs' Victor Wembanyama: Still without official return date
Victor Wembanyama (calf) lacks a clear timetable for a return to game action, and he may continue to remain out for the week of the NBA Cup, Jeff McDonald of the San Antonio Express-News reports.The NBA Cup runs from Dec. 9 through Dec. 16, and unless news emerges within the next week that Wembanyama has ramped up his on-court work, fantasy managers should prepare for the star center to remain out through the middle of the month. McDonald speculates that Wembanyama has a good chance of playing in games by Christmas Day, but the San Antonio Spurs have yet to provide any sort of official timetable on the 21-year-old's return since he was first diagnosed with a left calf strain in mid-November. Luke Kornet will continue to serve as the Spurs' primary option at center while Wembanyama is on the mend from the injury.
