San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama (shoulder) is reportedly expected to miss the rest of the season with a deep vein thrombosis, otherwise known as a blood clot, in his right shoulder. According to ESPN's Shams Charania, the Spurs believe this is an isolated incident. Normally, this is treated using blood thinners for a few months, then the medical team will likely investigate further to make sure the issue has cleared. Through 46 games, Wembanyama averaged 24.3 points, 11.0 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 3.8 blocks, and 1.1 steals per game. The Spurs will likely have to play a good bit of small-ball, so Keldon Johnson and Jeremy Sochan should see an uptick in minutes while the other two centers on the depth chart are Sandro Mamukelashvili and Bismack Biyombo.

San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama (illness) is considered doubtful for Thursday's clash against the Phoenix Suns. After appearing in his first All-Star Game, Wembanyama has landed on the injury report with an illness bug. If he doesn't recover in time for Thursday's game, the Spurs will be without Wembanyama for the seventh time this season. His most recent absence occurred on Feb. 1 against the Miami Heat. Charles Bassey (knee) took his place in the starting lineup for that game, but he has since been sidelined with an MCL sprain. Wembanyama's absence on Thursday may allow Jeremy Sochan to return to the starting unit, while Sandro Mamukelashvili and Bismack Biyombo are also potential options to take on a heavier workload.

San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama (illness) has been cleared to return to action on Monday against the Memphis Grizzlies. An illness kept Wembanyama out from Saturday's matchup against the Miami Heat, but he is ready to return on Monday after receiving an upgrade from questionable to available. Wembanyama is on a seven-game double-double streak and has exploded for a pair of 30-point games lately. However, with former Defensive Player of the Year Jaren Jackson Jr. in their lineup, the Grizzlies have limited the French star to 16.0 points on 34.2 percent shooting this season.

San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama (illness) is questionable for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He dropped out of the lineup on Saturday against the Miami Heat due to an illness and may be forced to miss a second consecutive game. Charles Bassey started in Wembanyama's place and produced a decent showing. He gobbled up 15 rebounds while notching nine points with one block in 27 minutes. At the same time, Devin Vassell played a larger role offensively, taking 22 shots, while his season average is 14 shot attempts per game.

San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama (back) will return from a two-game absence on Sunday against New Orleans. A back problem has kept Wembanyama on the sidelines for a couple of games, but he's good to go again on Sunday in a juicy matchup. The Pelicans have a weak frontcourt, resulting in the team allowing the ninth-most fantasy points in the league to opposing centers. Wembanyama will head out for his fourth consecutive double-double, and his recent work also includes a triple-double.

San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama (back) is considered questionable for Sunday's matchup against the New Orleans Pelicans. After missing the last two games due to bilateral low back soreness, the 20-year-old could make his return to the court on Sunday. Wembanyama has been a fantasy standout this season, averaging 23.5 points, 10.4 rebounds, and leading the league with 3.4 blocks per game. Fantasy managers will want to check back for updates as game time approaches.

San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama (back) will remain sidelined on Friday against Sacramento. A back problem will keep the French phenom out for a second consecutive contest after he was labeled as a game-time decision earlier in the evening. Jeremy Sochan moved to the first unit as Wembanyama's replacement on Thursday against Chicago, with Zach Collins and Charles Bassey seeing additional action as reserve bigs. Sochan had a nice 16-point, 14-rebound double-double, while Collins put together a decent all-around line. Both players should be good options for fantasy managers again on Friday.

San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama (back) won't play in Thursday's game against the visiting Bulls. The 20-year-old has a case of lower back soreness. But the Spurs also play on Friday against Sacramento, so the team may just be playing it safe. As expected, Wembanyama has had a quality year, averaging 23.5 points, 10.4 rebounds, 3.4 blocks, and 1.3 steals. As a result, there will be plenty of shots up for grabs, with Chris Paul, Stephon Castle, and Jeremy Sochan potentially on tap to get more scoring opportunities. Zach Collins should also slide into Wemby's spot in the rotation and is worth streaming in all fantasy formats.

San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama (knee) is probable for Saturday's matchup with the Golden State Warriors. He has missed the last three games because of a knee contusion. While the 20-year-old was questionable to play early on Saturday, his designation was upgraded, meaning there's a good chance he'll be out there. As expected, Wembanyama has had a fantastic year, averaging 22.7 points, 10.5 rebounds, and 3.3 blocks. Turnovers are still an issue, and his three-point shooting could also improve. Yet, he's a must-start if he gets the green light, even if he plays fewer minutes than normal. Even so, his presence would make Zach Collins mostly irrelevant in most fantasy setups.

San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama (knee) remains out for Thursday's game against the Utah Jazz. The 20-year-old has a right knee contusion, so he'll miss his third-straight game. Zach Collins (knee) has been starting in his place, most recently logging 12 points, seven boards, one steal, and one block in the NBA Cup win over the Thunder. But with Collins questionable for Thursday's meeting, Sandro Mamukelashvili could be worth streaming if he enters the starting lineup. Mamukelashvili would also be a popular DFS value option if Collins is out.

According to independent NBA writer Matthew Tynan, San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's matchup with the Oklahoma City Thunder. Wembanyama being sidelined was not surprising after he was listed as doubtful on the Spurs injury report on Monday. With the 20-year-old out, Zach Collins will likely start. During Collins' last outing, he registered 20 points, six rebounds, three blocks, and one steal across 26 minutes against the Mavs on Saturday.

San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama (knee) is doubtful for Tuesday's game against OKC. The 20-year-old has a bruised right knee, keeping him off the floor for Saturday's loss to the Dallas Mavericks. Zach Collins got the start in his place, finishing with 20 points, six rebounds, and three blocks. Unfortunately, he shot a rough 0-for-5 from behind the arc. But with Wembanyama trending toward missing another game, Collins should be considered a starting fantasy option. There's also a good chance he'll turn his shooting woes around.

San Antonio Spurs forward Victor Wembanyama (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday night's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Wembanyama is dealing with a right knee contusion and will be resting on the second night of a back-to-back for San Antonio. Wembanyama has yet to miss a game this season, averaging 22.7 PPG, 10.5 RPG and 3.7 blocks per game. His presence will certainly be missed by the Spurs on both ends of the court. Zach Collins will be getting the start in Wemby's place. Collins is averaging 5.6 PPG and 3.3 RPG this season. Collins did get 29 starts last season for San Antonio and averaged 14.8 PPG and 5.9 RPG as a starter. Fantasy managers should get Collins into their starting lineup while expecting marginal production. DFS managers willing to take a flyer on a cheap option may want to look at adding Collins and hoping for a big game.

San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game in Dallas. The 20-year-old has had an MVP-caliber season, most recently amassing 28 points, 14 rebounds, five assists, and two blocks in Friday's Emirates NBA Cup loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. With Devin Vassell (foot) getting the night off, fantasy managers could see an uptick in statistical contributions from guys like Stephon Castle, Zach Collins, Keldon Johnson, and Julian Champagnie.
