Victor Wembanyama is closing on his return from a calf strain that's sidelined him mid-November. 

But he won't make that return for the NBA Cup quarterfinals. Previously listed as questionable, Wembanyama was ruled out by the Spurs Tuesday night for Wednesday's NBA Cup game against the Los Angeles Lakers.
