Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs advanced to the next round of the NBA Playoffs with the Minnesota Timberwolves ready to go. The big man matchup between Wembanyama and Rudy Gobert will be one of the key storylines to watch as this series plays out.
There is cause for concern for San Antonio's side with Minnesota going 2-1 in the season series. However, Anthony Edwards was one of the biggest reasons why and his status is uncertain. He'll be available in Game 1, but the load he'll carry is unknown. He averaged 36.7 points in the three games on 58% shooting, 52% from 3-point range.
The second-seeded Spurs ousted the Portland Trailblazers 4-1 in the first round. Wembanyama suffered a concussion in the midst of the series and was out for a game dealing with symptoms. All four of the Spurs’ wins were by double digits.
