SAN ANTONIO, TX -APRIL 21: Victor Wembanyama #1 of the San Antonio Spurs holds his head after falling to the court against the Portland Trailblazers in the first half of Game Two of the Western Conference First Round NBA Playoffs at Frost Bank Center on April 21, 2026 in San Antonio, Texas.

Victor Wembanyama, who exited Game 2 after hitting his head on the floor following a big fall and entered the league’s concussion protocol, was listed as “Questionable,” which means there’s a chance he could suit up. Initially, it seemed like Wembanyama would miss some time, but he showed good progress, according to Spurs coach Mitch Johnson, and traveled with the team to Portland. He was widely expected to be out for Friday’s matchup, as he still needs league clearance before being able to return to play, but he hasn’t been ruled out, which is fantastic news for San Antonio. It’s still unlikely he’ll be available for Game 3, going by his status in the injury report, but the fact that there’s even a possibility is encouraging and a sign that he could be on the floor for Game 4. The Spurs head to Portland with a tied series, after winning Game 1 and losing a very close Game 2 in which Wembanyama only played 12 minutes before having to exit. They beat the Trail Blazers 2-1 in the regular season series, including a win on the road, with Wembanyama missing all three games, but the Blazers were also missing some players. The seventh seed has proved to be a tough opponent so far, coming out of the play-in and taking a game in San Antonio. The Silver and Black could still beat them without Wembanyama, but it would likely be a close series that could go either way. If Wemby is back soon, the Spurs go back to being prohibitive favorites. Jordan McLaughlin was listed as out by the Spurs. The only Trail Blazer to be listed as out is Damian Lillard. Wembanyama was unanimously crowned Defensive Player of the Year for 2025/26. He’s a finalist for Most Valuable Player. In Game 1’s win, he had 35 points, five rebounds, and two blocks. ...read more read less
