Spurs rookie sensation, Victor Wembanyama is shutting it down for the season after being diagnosed with deep vein thrombosis and the specter of Chris Bosh is now hovering over his career. Jason Smith & Mike Harmon are in for Doug Gottlieb on The Doug Gottlieb Show today and they consider the ramifications of his Wemby’s diagnosis. Deep vein thrombosis ended Chris Bosh’s career but the Spurs are optimistic that Wemby’s version is an isolated occurrence and he should be able to return much like Brandon Ingram did from a similar diagnosis.
Jason Smith: “This is not just an injury, this is something where, hey, this is something medically he’s got to deal with the rest of his career...This is really shocking and more eye-opening than your news of hey, so-and-so is injured and he’s not going to play the rest of the year.”
