The San Antonio Spurs are on the road on Friday night as they travel to take on the Portland Trail Blazers in Game 3 of their first-round series.
For the Spurs, they enter Friday’s game coming off a loss at home to the Trail Blazers on Tuesday night in Game 2 that tied the series at 1-1.
Now San Antonio will try to bounce back on the road on Friday as they try to regain control of the series with a victory over Portland.
While the Spurs are looking to pick up a victory in Game 3 on Friday, they may be without one of their star players due to injury.
Spurs list Victor Wembanyama as questionable for Game 3

The good news for the Spurs is that Wembanyama was able to travel with the team and that he has been listed as questionable instead of already being ruled out, though he will have to clear the NBA’s concussion protocol ahead of Game 3.
If the star center is unable to do so and is sidelined, Luke Kornet will likely draw a start in his place while Carter Bryant, Mason Plumlee and Kelly Olynyk could all be in line for increased roles off the bench.
The Spurs have ruled out Jordan McLaughlin as he will miss his third consecutive contest due to a left ankle sprain.
Fans can catch Game 3 of the first-round series between the Spurs and Trail Blazers from Portland on Friday night at 10:30 p.m. ET on Amazon Prime Video.
