EuroLeague clubs only recently started their preparations for the new season, but already injuries to key players are putting EuroLeague teams in awkward positions.
Shane Larkin, the leader of Anadolu Efes Istanbul, Usman Garuba, the rookie of Real Madrid, and Nikola Milutinov, the tall man of Piraeus Olympiakos, faced health problems.
“S Sport” was the first to report about S. Larkin’s injury. The defender injured his ankle and it is assumed that the basketball player will be forced to miss the entire pre-season period and his return is not expected until just before the start of the season.
“Olympiakos” club informs that their tall player N. Milutinova also suffered an ankle injury during training.
The midfielder sprained his ankle during training and was unable to continue training, and the club immediately assigned the basketball player additional tests to determine the severity of the injury.
In the recent friendly against Maccabi Tel Aviv, the Serbian scored 10 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists.
U. Garuba and the Real Madrid team received extremely unpleasant news.
“Marca” announces that the Spaniard suffered a stress fracture in his left leg, and the basketball player will have to spend 6 to 8 weeks without basketball.
22-year-old U. Garuba returned to the Madrid team after spending 3 seasons in the NBA league, to which he was drafted in the 23rd round.
