Spurs' Wembanyama Cleared of Major Injury After Knee Hyperextension Scare

San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama exited Wednesday's game against the Knicks in the fourth quarter after hyperextending his left knee upon landing from a rebound. He required assistance to the locker room and did not return, finishing with 31 points, 13 rebounds, 1 assist, and 1 block in 24 minutes. Initial reports from ESPN's Shams Charania confirm a slight hyperextension, with tests showing no major injury, which is excellent news. Wembanyama later returned to the bench without a noticeable limp, but his status for Friday's game against the Pacers remains questionable.
