Wembanyama is dealing with soreness in his right ankle, while Castle is already ruled out with right hip tightness. Here&#8217;s everything we know about Victor Wembanyama&#8217;s injury and his status for the game vs. the Pacers.<\/p>\n<p>Victor Wembanyama&#8217;s injury status vs. Pacers<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3737917\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Spurs-star-Victor-Wembanyama.jpg\" alt=\"Kendrick Perkins calls Spurs NBA Finals favorites over Thunder as Victor Wembanyama leads San Antonio\u2019s rise.\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\"  \/>Kirby Lee-Imagn Images<\/p>\n<p>While Castle is already ruled out, Wembanyama <a href=\"https:\/\/ak-static.cms.nba.com\/referee\/injury\/Injury-Report_2026-03-21_01_30PM.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">is ruled questionable<\/a> for Saturday&#8217;s contest between the Spurs and Pacers. His status will likely remain unclear until San Antonio announces his potential availability before tip-off. Victor Wembanyama has stated he wants to win MVP and Defensive Player of the Year, so he could push to play on Saturday night.<\/p>\n<p>The Spurs are firmly in second place in the Western Conference right now, as they are just three games behind the Oklahoma City Thunder. Considering the Pacers own the worst record in the NBA (15-55), this game is not considered to be a marquee matchup.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/clutchpoints.com\/nba\/san-antonio-spurs\/spurs-news-victor-wembanyama-reveals-scares-him-clinching-playoff-spot\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Victor Wembanyama has been a monster<\/a> for the Spurs all season long. The three-time All-Star is averaging 24.3 points (tied career-best), 11.1 rebounds (career-best), 2.9 assists, and 3.0 blocks (league leader) per game. He also owns an impressive 50.6% field goal percentage while shooting 35.7% from beyond the three-point line (career-best).<\/p>\n<p>Wembanyama played in the Spurs&#8217; last game that ended in a 101-100 win over the Phoenix Suns. The third-year veteran finished that contest with 34 points, 12 rebounds, one assist, and three steals. That victory clinched a playoff berth for San Antonio.<\/p>\n<p>So, when it comes to the question if Victor Wembanyama is playing tonight vs. the Pacers, the answer remains up in the air.<\/p>\n<p>Spurs injury report<\/p>\n<p>Stephon Castle \u2013 Out: Right Hip; Tightness<br \/>Harrison Ingram \u2013 Out: G League; Two-Way<br \/>David Jones Garcia \u2013 Out: G League; Two-Way<br \/>Emmanuel Miller \u2013 Out: G League; Two-Way<br \/>Victor Wembanyama \u2013 Questionable: Right Ankle; Soreness<\/p>\n<p>Pacers injury report<\/p>\n<p>Johnny Furphy \u2013 Out: Right ACL; Tear<br \/>Tyrese Haliburton \u2013 Out: Right Achilles Tendon; Tear<br \/>Quentin Jackson \u2013 Questionable: Right Calf; Strain<br \/>TJ McConnell \u2013 Questionable: Right Hamstring; Soreness<br \/>Andrew Nembhard \u2013 Questionable: Right Calf; Contusion<br \/>Aaron Nesmith \u2013 Questionable: Right Ankle; Injury Management<br \/>Taelon Peter \u2013 Questionable: G League; Two-Way<br \/>Micah Potter \u2013 Questionable: Right Triceps; Strain<br \/>Ben Sheppard \u2013 Questionable: Left Ankle; Sprain<br \/>Pascal Siakam \u2013 Questionable: Right Knee; Sprain<br \/>Jalen Slawson \u2013 Questionable: G League; Two-Way<br \/>Ethan Thompson \u2013 Questionable: G League; Two-Way<br \/>Obi Toppin \u2013 Questionable: Right Foot; Injury Management<br \/>Ivica Zubac \u2013 Out: Rib; Fracture<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The San Antonio Spurs will face off against the Indiana Pacers at home on Saturday night.
