Victor Wembanyama’s remarkable start to his career will be put on hold due to a blood clot. On Thursday, the Spurs announced the 7-foot-5 phenom had suffered a deep vein thrombosis — a blood clot — in his right shoulder and will be shut down for the remainder of the 2024-25 season.

Former NBA All-Star Chris Bosh saw his career end prematurely as a result of blood clots, but Victor Wembanyama is not dealing with the same issue.

UCLA vascular surgeon Hugh A. Gelabert compared Victor Wembanyama's deep vein thrombosis to what Chris Bosh endured toward the end of his career.
