Victor Wembanyama’s MVP Chances Diminish After Recent Injury
The San Antonio Spurs will close their regular season at home. Their final three opponents are the Portland Trail Blazers, Denver Nuggets, and Dallas Mavericks.
Schedule and recovery window
Each game comes after a full day off. That spacing gives Victor Wembanyama time to recover from his recent issue.
| Game | Opponent | Rest |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Portland Trail Blazers | 1 day |
| 2 | Denver Nuggets | 1 day |
| 3 | Dallas Mavericks | 1 day |
Availability and eligibility
The NBA requires 65 games for full award eligibility. Wembanyama can still reach that mark. However, the margin for error is razor-thin.
MVP race outlook
Victor Wembanyama’s MVP chances have taken a hit following his recent injury. Nikola Jokić and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander hold strong cases themselves.
Those candidacies leave Wembanyama without a clear, uncontested path to the award. Filmogaz.com will monitor his status and the final vote implications.
