Thunder, San Antonio Spurs and Victor Wembanyama

NBA legend Tony Parker is excited and proud of what his fellow Frenchman, Victor Wembanyama, has accomplished in his professional career with the San Antonio Spurs. He is confident that with the way the young big man is carving his path, he will end up in the company of the best in history.
Victor Wembanyama could provide a boost for the Spurs this week with a possible return. Here's the latest on his calf injury.
Victor Wembanyama deflected a question about his rivalry with Chet Holmgren, instead praising Shai Gilgeous-Alexander as the Thunder's MVP. This response sparked debate among fans, with some seeing it as a one-sided beef and others questioning Wemby's right to comment.
Wembanyama last played during an NBA Cup Group C game against the Golden State Warriors on November 14. An MRI later confirmed a left calf strain, announced by the Spurs on November 17. San Antonio stayed careful, following league-wide trends around calf injuries.
After nearly a month sidelined by a left calf strain, Victor Wembanyama is expected to return for the San Antonio Spurs in Saturday’s NBA Cup semifinal in Las Vegas against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Wembanyama was listed as probable on Friday’s Spurs injury report, but he pronounced himself “ready to go” while talking to reporters on Friday night.
