Wembanyama ejected for elbow against Timberwolves

Victor Wembanyama received his first playoff disqualification on Saturday night following an unintentional elbow on Naz Reid. The Spurs fell to the Timberwolves (109-102), bringing the series to 2-2. The French forward, stunned by the referee's decision, did not understand the extent of the punishment. This ejection deprives San Antonio of a key piece for the rest of the matchup.
