San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama has been in and out of the lineup this season. So much so that he is teetering on the brink of eligibility for some major NBA awards.
Wembanyama can only afford to miss four more games before being deemed ineligible for Defensive Player of the Year (DPOY) and All-NBA. I said it before, and I'll say it again: the NBA's 65-game minimum rule has been a disaster.
Not only are many of the game's best players already ruled out from winning major awards or All-NBA, allowing lesser players to get those honors instead, but also.
