San Antonio star center Victor Wembanyama was concussed during Game 2 of the Spurs' first-round playoff series with the Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday, his coach confirmed following the contest.
Wembanyama hit his face on the floor at near-full speed after being knocked off his feet during a drive to the basket at the 8:57 mark of the second period, with the contact leaving him dazed enough to struggle standing up before jogging off the floor to the locker room.
