Victor Wembanyama avoids suspension, set to play Game 5 against Timberwolves

AI-synthesized · Bias removed · Facts only

San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama will not face any further discipline for an incident involving Minnesota Timberwolves center Naz Reid and will be available for Game 5 of the series, sources told ESPN.

The league reviewed the play in which Wembanyama elbowed Reid but determined the action did not warrant a suspension or any additional punishment beyond what was called during the game. As a result, Wembanyama will be on the court when the Spurs host the Timberwolves in San Antonio.

The news secures a key presence for San Antonio as they look to advance in the playoff series.
