Hapoel Eilat players are disappointed (Itzik Blanitsky)
Hapoel Eilat announced today (Monday) that Tran Petway, who was injured last night during last night’s 76:88 victory over Hapoel Galil Alyon, dislocated his shoulder and is expected to miss several weeks of the season.
The center has not yet had an MRI, so the severity of the injury is not yet completely clear, and therefore the length of the absence is still unknown. As I recall, Hapoel Eilat has already lost its center and who was its star before he was injured, Casey Prather who has already missed more than a season due to serious injuries he suffered since he arrived at the southern team in the league.
In addition, as part of the team’s efforts to search for a point guard (to replace the released Scott Machado), the possibility of adding a guard for the period of Tran’s absence is also being examined. Pettway, who was called to replace Prather, so far provided not very impressive averages of 5.7 points, 3 rebounds and 3.5 assists in the three games he played in the Eilat uniform, which so far has won only once this season.
