Spurs' Victor Wembanyama out vs. Kings due to sprained ankle

SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- The San Antonio Spurs have ruled rookie Victor Wembanyama out of their game against the Sacramento Kings on Thursday night because of a sprained right ankle.

Wembanyama appeared to roll the ankle in the second quarter of San Antonio's game at Houston on Tuesday. He was subbed out less than two minutes later, then returned to start the third quarter and played almost all of the second half.

It will be the seventh game missed by Wembanyama this season. He started 56 of the Spurs' first 62 contests.
