San Antonio Spurs head coach Mitch Johnson said he expects Victor Wembanyama’s fatigue from time away to impact his playing time, noting that he expects an early substitution and not his normal minutes in Saturday’s Emirates NBA Cup semifinals against the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Fantasy Impact:
Wembanyama, listed as probable for Saturday’s contest, is set to return from a 12-game absence due to a left calf strain. It’s unclear how many minutes he will play, but his upside still makes him a must-start in season-long leagues and a tournament play in daily fantasy formats. With his return, Luke Kornet and Kelly Olynyk are likely to see reduced minutes.
