San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama entered concussion protocol Tuesday, April 21, after taking a hard fall on the court midway through the team's Game 2 playoff defeat to the Portland Trail Blazers.
The newly crowned NBA Defensive Player of the Year, 22, smacked his head on the hardwood while driving to the basket against the Trail Blazers' Jrue Holiday and remained on the floor inside inside San Antonio's Frost Bank Center for a few moments as players from both teams gathered around the towering 7-foot-4 forward.
Wembanyama was ruled out for the remainder of the game, an eventual 106-103 loss to even San Antonio's first-round playoff series against Portland, 1-1.
"I just know he has a concussion and he's in the protocol," Spurs head coach Mitch Johnson said afterward, according to ESPN. "We'll obviously take the proper and appropriate steps."

The series will shift to Portland for Games 3 and 4 beginning Friday.
Although Wembanyama's status for the remainder of the series is unclear, players who are diagnosed with concussions "cannot return to full participation" for at least 48 hours after the injury, according to league guidelines. They also cannot start the return-to-participation exertion process "until 24 hours after the time of injury," a decision that will come from a team doctor, per the guidelines.

A player can take the court again when they are "without concussion-related symptoms at rest," have been evaluated by a physician, undergone exertion testing and have been approved by the director of the NBA Concussion Program, the guidelines state. Should the director be in agreement with the team doctor, the player will get the green light to play.
The Spurs entered this year's NBA playoffs as the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference after compiling a 62-20 record during the regular season.
Wembanyama, the Spurs' first overall pick in 2023, scored 35 points in San Antonio's 111-98 victory over Portland in Game 1 of the series on Sunday, April 19, when the team matched in all-black suits.
