The San Antonio Spurs<\/strong> rested Victor Wembanyama<\/strong> on Thursday night, yet still delivered an impressive 118-99 win over the LA Clippers<\/strong>. The French star was held out for right ankle injury management<\/strong> in the second game of a back-to-back after San Antonio\u2019s win over Golden State on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Wembanyama had dominated the Warriors just one night earlier, posting 41 points and 18 rebounds in only 29 minutes. Earlier Thursday, he was also named Western Conference Defensive Player of the Month<\/strong> for March, marking the third straight month he has earned the honor thanks to elite production across the board.<\/p>\n

For the season, Victor Wembanyama<\/strong> is averaging 24.7 points, 11.5 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 3.1 blocks and 1.1 steals per game. After missing this game, he now needs to appear in three of the Spurs\u2019 final five regular-season games to reach the 65-game threshold for postseason award eligibility.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
