Victor Wembanyama is back. The San Antonio Spurs confirmed their franchise cornerstone has cleared concussion protocol and will suit up for Game four against Portland.

It was also a bittersweet goodbye for Kings legend Anze Kopitar, whose storied career appears to have ended on home ice without the send-off that city deserved. MacKinnon two goals, one assist, just another night at the office.
