Victor Wembanyama was assessed a flagrant foul but walked away without a suspension. Here's what the rulebook actually says. Under NBA Rule 12B Section IV, a Flagrant Foul Penalty 1 involves unnecessary contact — but ejection and suspension only follow a Penalty 2 ruling, or a second Flagrant 1 in the same game. The replay evidence supports the call on the floor. The rulebook decides — and this time, no suspension was merited. Every call. Reviewed. Verdict given. #basketball #nbaref #blownwhistle #wembanyama #spurs #nbarulesexplained #flagrantfoul #nbacalls #basketballrules #nbareferee #wemby #wolves #sanantoniospurs #minnesotatimberwolves
Game 3 San Antonio Spurs Vs. Minnesota Timberwolves McDaniels drains the three at the buzzer. Randle makes contact on the screen. Officials review it and rule the contact happened after the clock expired. Basket stands. Halftime. But the replay tells a different story. The clock still had time when the contact happened. Officials reviewed it and still got the reason wrong. Every call. Reviewed. Verdict given. #basketball #nbaref #blownwhistle #spursvswolves #nba #nbaplayoffs #playoffs
