The San Antonio Spurs will have a crucial part of the lineup back for their toughest test of the season.
Victor Wembanyama is listed as probable for Saturday's NBA Cup semifinals against the Oklahoma City Thunder in Las Vegas, according to the team's injury report.
The 21-year-old has been sidelined since Nov. 14 due to a calf strain. Wembanyama averaged 26.2 points, 12.9 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 3.6 blocks in 12 games before getting shut down by injury.
The Spurs beat the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday to secure a berth to the semifinals.
San Antonio is an impressive 9-3 without Wembanyama, looking very much like a burgeoning powerhouse with a talent-rich roster following six consecutive non-playoff seasons.
