Out
- Victor Wembanyama | Calf | San Antonio Spurs
- The Spurs superstar, Victor Wembanyama, is set to miss a few weeks with a calf injury. San Antonio won its first game without Wemby, as De’Aaron Fox and Harrison Barnes each recorded at least 20 points. Fox has averaged 22 points per game since returning from injury and will need to take on an even larger role in the Spurs’ offense without Wemby.

Tristan da Silva has played 32 and 40 minutes in the previous two contests and has been effective.
