San Antonio Spurs fans got a real fright put into them during Tuesday’s game.
The Spurs hosted the Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday for Game 2 of their first-round playoff series. In the second quarter at Frost Bank Center in San Antonio, Texas, Spurs star Victor Wembanyama had to exit the game after taking a terrifying fall.
Wembanyama was spinning his way to the basket and got knocked off balance by Portland’s Jrue Holiday, who switched onto him defensively. That led to Wembanyama falling hard to the deck, and his face ended up bouncing off the hardwood.
Here is the video of the scary fall.

The seven-footer Wembanyama got up on his own after several moments but seemed to be very dazed by the fall. He immediately left the game to go the locker room and was later ruled out for the remainder of the game by the Spurs as he entered concussion protocol.

San Antonio won Game 1 over Portland on Sunday by a final score of 111-98. But now the attention turns to Wembanyama’s status for the remainder of the series if he is indeed dealing with a concussion here.
The Spurs and Blazers have two full days off before the series shifts to Portland for Game 3 on Friday. But the two teams then play every other day after that, and there is obviously significant concern right now for Wembanyama, who also missed time after a fall late in the regular season.
