Three key players were hurt as Euroleague’s regular season is getting in its most crucial stage. Sam Van Rossom of Valencia, Lamont Hamilton of Laboral Kutxa and Vladimir Micov of Galatasaray will have to stay out of action for a long period.
Van Rossom was hurt in Sunday’s game against Barcelona and a torn right buttock muscle means that he can’t play in the rest of the regular season, as he will need six weeks in order to recover. It remains to be seen if his team, which recently added Nemanja Nedovic will sign also an other player.
Hamilton was hurt on Monday’s practice, he had torn the flexor muscle in his left big toe and the team already found a new center in the face of Mirza Begic. Micov was hurt in the big game of the Turkish TBL against Fenerbahce/ Ulker, he is out with a fractured hand and he will undergo surgery. He will be back in action for one month.
