Wembanyama Ruled Out for NBA Cup Quarterfinal vs. Lakers

Spurs star Victor Wembanyama (calf) has been officially ruled out for Wednesday's NBA Cup quarterfinal game against the Los Angeles Lakers, marking his 12th consecutive missed contest due to a left calf strain. While he was a full participant in Sunday's practice, indicating a return is near, he will remain on the shelf. Luke Kornet and Kelly Olynyk are expected to see increased minutes in his absence.
