The latest injury concern for Fenerbahce Beko is attached to 29-year-old Devon Hall.
The American shooting guard suffered a fracture in the metatarsal bone of his left hand during the game against FC Bayern Munich on Tuesday and will undergo surgery.
He is expected to be out for approximately three months, according to a report by Eurohoops’ Bugra Uzar.
The announcement was made on Wednesday morning, a few hours after the Round 9 affair of the 2024-25 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Regular Season. Wade Baldwin IV (hamstring), Scottie Wilbekin (right knee surgery), and Yigit Hamza Mestoglu (right knee surgery) were already out for Fener.
The former Virginia standout averaged 7.7 points per EuroLeague game over nine appearances, including five starts. Contributing 12 points and seven assists in the winning effort opposite Bayern in Ulker Sports Arena, he helped his side improve to a league-high 7-2. However, he will sit out several fixtures, including the bottom end of the two-game week and the Round 10 contest opposite Zalgiris in Zalgirio Arena on Friday.
At the top of the Turkiye Sigorta Basketbol Super Ligi Regular Season, Hall tallied 5.8 points per contest. The team coached by Sarunas Jasikevicius sits at 5-1, trailing undefeated leaders Anadolu Efes and Tofas, ahead of a home game versus the fellow Istanbul outfit on Sunday.
After three years with EA7 Emporio Armani Milan, featuring 93 appearances in Europe’s premier club continental competition and three LBA UnipolSai championships, he moved his talents to the Turkish club during the offseason.
Earlier in his career, Hall played in 11 NBA games with the Oklahoma City Thunder during the 2019-20 Regular Season.
