Victor Wembanyama looks stellar in full-court game after recovering from last season’s blood clot issue.
SAN ANTONIO — According to a report from Marc Stein, San Antonio Spurs All-Star Victor Wembanyama recently participated in a full-court game in Los Angeles and looked “stellar” following his blood clot issue that sidelined him last season. https://marcstein.substack.com/
Wemby, of course, hasn’t played in game conditions since February, when his All-Star sophomore season in San Antonio came to an abrupt end due to a blood clot. Yet I’m told he played in some recent full-court runs at Loyola Marymount in Los Angeles and, just so you know, is said to have looked quite stellar.
This is good news regarding his health ahead of training camp and the preseason, indicating that he is fully recovered and raring to start the season.
Last season, he posted 24.3 points, 11 rebounds, and led the NBA with 3.8 blocks per game despite the shortened season.
At full strength, Wembanyama should be able to live up to the “generational” label he was given when he entered the NBA and hopefully end the Spurs’ playoff drought.
