San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama won't face further discipline from the NBA for elbowing Minnesota’s Naz Reid in Game 4 of the teams’ Western Conference semifinal series, according to a person with knowledge of the league’s decision.
The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the league didn't publicly release any details of its evaluation and investigative process.
Wembanyama will be eligible to play Game 5 on Tuesday in San Antonio.
