Will Victor Wembanyama Play Against Knicks Tonight?
Wembanyama, who had previously missed the game on March 25 due to a sprained ankle, is not on the injury list. He made his return on March 27 playing for 30 minutes in the 118-111 victory over Jazz.
In their first face-off, the New Yorker successfully kept Wembanyama at bay, when the much-admired rookie shot 4-of-14 in a staggering 126-105 defeat at Madison Square Garden in November.
The Knicks will be looking to continue this trend in their final regular season road game against a Western Conference adversary; currently holding a 6-8 record from such face-offs.
San Antonio Spurs vs New York Knicks Match Preview
Coming into this season, making the playoffs hadn't been in the San Antonio Spurs' plan. Yet, they were keen on making progress. Indeed, they've been advancing notably - thanks to their Rookie of the Year favorite, Victor Wembenyama.
Wembenyama's recent performance has been exceptional - in his past 15 matches, he's been scoring an average of over 21 points per game, far surpassing his regular season averages.
On Wednesday night, he teamed up with Devin Vassell to lead the Spurs to a 118-111 victory over the Utah Jazz.
The match witnessed Wembenyama scoring 19 points with five blocks while Vassell added 31 points. The team also accomplished a season-high record with 40 assists on 44 field goals.
Despite battling multiple injuries, the New York Knicks are keeping up their strong final push in the season to secure the third position in the Eastern Conference playoffs. Wednesday night was particularly victorious as the Knicks overwhelmed the Toronto Raptors 145-101.
The triumph featured Miles McBride delivering a career-high 29 points, while Jalen Brunson contributed 26 points.
The match also saw Mitchell Robinson's comeback into the game after missing 50 games due to a left ankle injury. Robinson, though not yet in his top form, contributed eight points off the bench and is gradually regaining his shape for the playoffs.
