Victor Wembanyama clinches eligibility for NBA MVP, other postseason awards
SAN ANTONIO — Victor Wembanyama has now qualified for postseason NBA awards after returning from a left rib contusion for Friday’s game against the Dallas Mavericks.The Spurs’ 7-foot-4 superstar was at risk of falling a game short of the 65-game minimum when he suffered a rib injury colliding with Paul George in the second quarter of Monday’s win over the Philadelphia 76ers. He sat out Wednesday’s win over the Portland Trail Blazers but planned to return Friday if his pre-game warmup went smoothly. Wembanyama managed to cross the 20-minute threshold required for the game to count for eligibility and checked out at the next whistle.Advertisementالمصدر: The Athletic | Source: The Athletic
