PORTLAND, Ore. -- San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said Friday that Victor Wembanyama will sit out back-to-backs for a couple of weeks and remain on a minutes restriction, as the team continues to be cautious with the rookie center's ankle injury.
Wembanyama landed on the foot of a Mavericks ballboy during his pregame warmup on Dec. 23, two games after being sidelined with right ankle soreness. The team sat him that night against Dallas as a precaution, citing a right ankle sprain.
Wembanyama returned to action Tuesday but is out for Friday night's game against the Trail Blazers, the second night of a back-to-back with Portland.
