According to ESPN’s Shams Charania and Michael C. Wright, Wembanyama is expected to miss 2-3 weeks due to the injury.
League source says Spurs will re-evaluate Victor Wembanyama in 2-3 weeks. He’ll be out at least 2 weeks. Spurs are being especially cautious given all the calf injuries we’ve seen lately turn into something worse. For what it’s worth, I’m told Vic feels fine.

Wembanyama underwent the MRI on Sunday, when he sat out of San Antonio’s victory against the Sacramento Kings.
He suffered the injury Friday against the Golden State Warriors. He had 26 points, 12 rebounds, four assists and three blocks in the 109-108 loss.
Wembanyama is averaging 26.2 points, 12.9 rebounds, 4.0 assists and leads the league with 3.58 blocks per game.
San Antonio is off to its best start in a decade at 8-4, including a franchise-record 5-0 start.
