- As of late 2025 and early 2026, Victor Wembanyama dealt with knee and leg-related injuries that caused him to miss multiple games, with MRI checks at times showing no ligament damage but continued monitoring and cautious returns. These events included a hyperextension/leg issue around late December 2025, leading to at least one absence and gradual ramp-up in early 2026.[5][6][7][9]
- There have also been reports of other injuries in the preceding season, including a calf strain in November 2025, which sidelined him for a few weeks, affecting his availability for certain games.[3][4]
