Pop clarified pre-game: “The doctors don’t keep him [Wembanyama] from playing back-to-back because of rest. It’s because of his body. They want to make sure everything is copacetic.”
The team has him listed as OUT due to “rest,” but we’ve been made clear all along the reasoning. – 8:23 PM

Patrick Williams out vs Spurs .. ankle – heel. – 7:19 PM
KC Johnson @KCJHoop
Spurs coach Gregg Popovich on Jerry Krause boos: “I feel the same way about that as when Kawhi Leonard got booed here. It’s unnecessary. It’s impolite. It’s ignorant. If anything, it’s like a snapshot of the world we live in today. Meanness seems to be a lot more condoned.” – 7:02 PM
KC Johnson @KCJHoop
Patrick Williams is out vs. Spurs, per Donovan. Right ankle soreness and now some heel pain. – 7:01 PM

Victor Wembanyama’s teammates heard everything you said about them not passing him the ball. So did Wemby.
What they understood all along is that it takes time to make a simple game look simple. And lately it’s looked a whole lot easier.

Chicago booed Jerry Krause for breaking up the Bulls and forcing Michael Jordan into retirement, but he saved Jordan’s perfect Finals mark and prevented the Bulls from being knocked off by someone lesser.
The run was over, y’all
