San Antonio Spurs rookie Victor Wembanyama will travel with the team to Portland for games this weekend while he continues to work through the steps required under the NBA’s concussion protocol.
Wembanyama remains in the protocol as he completes the mandated process, but he will still be with the Spurs on the road for the upcoming trip. The team is set to face the Portland Trail Blazers in Portland this weekend.
What it means for San Antonio
Wembanyama’s presence on the trip keeps him connected with the team as he continues his recovery process. Under the league’s concussion procedures, a player must complete each step before being cleared to return.
The Spurs will continue their road schedule in Portland with Wembanyama traveling alongside the group while his status remains dependent on protocol progress.
