Concussion protocol means he can't even get on a basketball court for 48 hours.

After that, he has to go through some steps to return.

So I would say game three, which is in 72 hours from when he got the concussion, that would be unlikely.

It's possible he's back for game four, game five, something like that.

What they need to do right now is plan for how to play without Wemby.

Because I think that's part of why they fell apart under pressure in the fourth quarter.

This was completely unexpected.

And they've played without him before.

In fact, they have a 12-6 record during the regular season without him.

But that was because it was the plan.

So I think that they kind of just didn't have their bearings.

As you said, Blazers went to the basket.

I think in that last stretch run, they had six paint baskets.

Five of them were right at the rim.

That's not going to happen when Benyama is in there.

And then De'Aaron Fox just has to play better if this team is going to pick up a few games with Wemby out.

He didn't score in the last five minutes of this game.

They brought him in to score in the last five minutes of games.

So he really has to be able to come in there and charge and do some of the things that, frankly, we saw the guys in the Laker game last night step up and do.

We didn't see that in the Spurs game.
