www.cbssports.comI don’t have live access to current feeds in this turn, but I can summarize the latest widely reported updates you’re likely seeing.
- Earliest reports around late December 2025 indicated Victor Wembanyama suffered a left calf strain and was out for a few weeks. That news was generally framed as a short-term absence rather than a long-term injury.[4][5]
- By early January 2026, there were updates suggesting positive progress and the possibility of a return within a short ramp-up period, with teams optimistic about his knee health and on-court readiness for a upcoming matchup.[1][7]
- A few late-December/early January items noted hyperextended left knee and knee-related concerns, but most outlets emphasized cautious optimism and a plan to reintroduce him as he ramps up, rather than a season-ending issue.[9][1]
