Real Madrid will face CSKA Moscow on Friday. However, Sergio Llull and Trey Thompkins won’t play in the EuroLeague Regular Season Round 22 game, per Radio Marca’s Carlos Santos.
Before the trip to Moscow, Pablo Laso said Llull might be ready for the 83rd edition of the Copa del Rey, which will be held next week in Madrid. It’s worth noting that the 31-year-old Spaniard also missed the first 2018-19 match against CSKA.
Real’s head coach added that Thompkins’s injury presents bigger difficulties ahead of the Copa del Rey. The next few days will determine the 28-year-old American forward’s availability.
The Spaniards are a couple of wins away from securing a EuroLeague playoffs spot with nine games to go in the Regular Season. They got in a good position winning 17 of their 21 first matches.
