SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Victor Wembanyama is likely to miss the remainder of the San Antonio Spurs’ road trip with a right ankle sprain, head coach Gregg Popovich said Thursday night.

The Spurs take on the Kings on Thursday before facing the Golden State Warriors on Saturday night in San Francisco.

Wembanyama is not with the Spurs in Sacramento. After Tuesday night’s game in Houston, he returned to San Antonio.

“He’ll probably miss these two games and hopefully be ready for Monday,” Popovich said.

The Spurs host the Warriors in San Antonio on Monday.

Wembanyama was listed as questionable for the Rockets game on Tuesday with left shoulder soreness but was cleared to play. During the game, however, he tweaked his right ankle and was also favoring his right hip.

He left the bench area with 3:24 left in the second quarter to get retaped and played his normal minutes allotment in the second half. He did not attempt a shot after halftime, however, and didn’t look the same defensively.

“He didn’t say a whole lot, so we didn’t realize that he was hampered by that really at the time,” Popovich said. “When you looked at the film after, you could see that he wasn’t moving very well. So he’s taking care of it now.”

Thursday was the seventh game the rookie has missed. If he doesn’t play against the Warriors on Saturday, it will be the first time all season he misses consecutive games.
