What happened: NBA officials are reviewing a potential flagrant foul involving Victor Wembanyama that occurred during Sunday's Game 5. If the league retroactively upgrades the play after the game, the Spurs star will be automatically suspended for the next contest.

Why it matters: Wembanyama has accumulated three flagrant foul points this postseason, placing him one point away from an automatic one-game ban. With the New York Knicks leading the series 3-1, losing Victor Wembanyama for a potential Game 6 would be a devastating blow to San Antonio's comeback efforts.

What to watch: The NBA league office is expected to announce its ruling on Monday morning. The Spurs currently lead Game 5 as they attempt to stave off elimination at home.
