샌안토니오 스퍼스의 스타 빅토르 웸바냐마는 화요일 밤 포틀랜드와의 플레이오프 경기 2쿼터에서 얼굴을 먼저 코트에 부딪혀 넘어진 후 NBA의 뇌진탕 프로토콜에 들어갔다.
"그는 뇌진탕이 있습니다. 프로토콜에 들어갔습니다"라고 스퍼스의 미치 존슨 감독은 샌안토니오가 106-103으로 패배하여 서부컨퍼런스 1라운드 시리즈를 1-1로 동점으로 만든 후 말했다. "우리는 적절한 절차를 밟을 것입니다."
웸바냐마의 장기 부상은 리그 2위의 기록을 기록한 프랑스 출신의 7피트 4인치 센터의 다재다능함으로 샌안토니오에 큰 타격이 될 것이다.
리그 지침에 따르면, 뇌진탕 프로토콜에 들어간 선수는 최소 48시간의 휴식과 회복이 필요하며, 증상 없이 여러 이정표를 통과한 후 경기 복귀가 승인될 수 있다. 선수는 신경학적 검사를 받아야 하며 팀 의사의 최종 승인을 받아야 한다.
3경기는 금요일에 포틀랜드에서 열린다. 웸바냐마가 그때까지 승인될 가능성은 낮아 보이지만, 존슨 감독은 그의 상태에 대해 추측하지 않았다.
"프로토콜은 프로토콜입니다"라고 존슨 감독은 말했다. "우리는 그것을 따를 것이고 다른 모든 팀처럼 그에 따라 계획할 것입니다."
스퍼스는 정규시즌에 웸바냐마 없이 12-6의 기록을 올렸다.
"우리 모두가 나서야 합니다"라고 스퍼스 가드 데빈 바셀은 말했다. "빅이 가져오는 것이 무엇인지 우리는 알고 있습니다. 우리는 올해 몇 경기 그 없이 뛰었습니다. 다음 사람이 나서야 합니다. 모두가 나서야 합니다. 그것은 채워야 할 거대한 공백입니다."
웸바냐마는 트레일 블레이저스의 포인트 가드 주 홀리데이에게 파울을 당한 후 페인트 지역에서 돌았다. 그는 넘어지면서 몸을 지탱하지 못했고, 2쿼터가 8분 57초 남았을 때 턱이 코트에 부딪혔다.
웸바냐마는 약 30초 동안 코트에 있다가 앉은 자세로 약 1분 동안 있었고 팀 동료 스테판 캐슬과 대화를 나눴다. 존슨 감독은 타임아웃을 요청했고, 웸바냐마는 일어나자마자 터널로 달려갔다.
웸바냐마는 12분 동안 5점, 4리바운드, 1블록, 1어시스트를 기록했다. 베테랑 루크 코르넷이 웸바냐마를 대체하여 2반부 센터로 선발 출장하여 28분 동안 10점과 9리바운드를 기록했다.
"정말 무서웠습니다. 사진을 봤습니다. 좋지 않았습니다"라고 웸바냐마가 다친 플레이에 대해 트레일 블레이저스의 티아고 스플리터 감독은 말했다.
샌안토니오는 2019년 이후 처음으로 플레이오프에 진출했으며 웸바냐마의 35점을 바탕으로 서부컨퍼런스 1라운드 시리즈 1경기에서 포틀랜드를 이겼다. 그 없이 스퍼스는 2003년 이후 처음으로 플레이오프에서 4쿼터 14점 리드를 날렸으며, 이는 76경기 동안의 기간이다.
월요일에 웸바냐마는 NBA의 올해의 수비 선수 상의 만장일치 수상자가 되었다. 그는 이번 시즌 평균 25점, 11.5리바운드, 리그 최고 3.1블록을 기록했다.
바셀은 경기 후 웸바냐마와 바로 대화할 기회가 없었다고 말했다.
"우리는 분명히 그를 확인할 것입니다. 우리의 기도는 그와 함께합니다"라고 바셀은 말했다. "우리는 단지 그가 좋기를 원합니다."

SAN ANTONIO (AP) — San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama was placed in the NBA’s concussion protocol after tumbling face-first to the court in the second quarter of Tuesday night’s playoff loss to Portland.
“He has a concussion. He’s in the protocol,” Spurs coach Mitch Johnson said after San Antonio fell 106-103 to even the Western Conference first-round series at one game apiece. “We’ll take the proper and appropriate steps.”
Any extended absence by Wembanyama would be a massive blow to San Antonio, which finished with the league’s second-best record behind the versatile 7-foot-4 center from France.
Under league guidelines, a player in the concussion protocol must have at least 48 hours of inactivity and recovery and then hit several benchmarks without symptoms before being cleared to play. A player must undergo neurological testing and receive a final clearance from a team doctor in consultation with the league’s concussion protocol director.
Game 3 is Friday in Portland. It seems improbable that Wembanyama would be cleared by then, but Johnson wouldn’t speculate about his status.
“The protocol is the protocol,” Johnson said. “We’ll just follow it as everyone else does and plan accordingly.”
The Spurs went 12-6 during the regular season without Wembanyama.
“We’ve all got to step up,” Spurs guard Devin Vassell said. “We know what Vic brings to the table. We’ve played without him for a couple games this year. It’s going to be next man up. Everybody’s going to have to step up. That’s a huge void to fill. We can’t get bogged down by it.”
Wembanyama was fouled by Jrue Holiday after he spun around the Trail Blazers point guard in the paint. He was not able to brace himself on the fall, and his jaw hit the court with 8:57 remaining in the second quarter.
Wembanyama remained on the court for about 30 seconds before rising to a seated position for about a minute and speaking to teammate Stephon Castle. Johnson called timeout to check on Wembanyama, who immediately ran through the tunnel after getting to his feet.
Wembanyama had five points, four rebounds, one blocked shot and one assist in 12 minutes. Veteran Luke Kornet replaced Wembanyama and started the second half at center, finishing with 10 points and nine rebounds in 28 minutes.
“It was scary. I saw the images. It was not good,” Trail Blazers coach Tiago Splitter said of the play where Wembanyama got hurt. “With him out, Kornet, I think he did a tremendous job. We still have to figure out how to play better when Kornet is on the court.”
San Antonio is in the playoffs for the first time since 2019 and beat Portland in Game 1 of the Western Conference first-round series behind 35 points from Wembanyama. Without him, the Spurs blew a 14-point fourth-quarter lead in the playoffs for the first time since 2003, a span of 76 games.
On Monday, Wembanyama became the unanimous winner of the NBA’s Defensive Player of the Year award. He averaged 25 points, 11.5 rebounds and a league-best 3.1 blocks this season.
Vassell said he didn’t have a chance to talk with Wembanyama immediately after the game.
“We’ll definitely check in on him. Our prayers are with him,” Vassell said. “We just want him to be good.”
