Nikola Mirotic to miss games due to muscle injury
Valencia Basket forward Nikola Mirotic will be sidelined for several upcoming games following a muscle injury to his left adductor. The injury occurred during a EuroLeague matchup against Fenerbahce, where Mirotic was unable to complete the game after experiencing sharp pain.
Coach Xavi Albert indicated that Mirotic is expected to be unavailable for at least two weeks, though the club stated his return will depend on his daily evolution and response to treatment. This injury comes at a challenging time for Valencia, as they also face the absence of Nate Reuvers, who is recovering from a foot injury.
Mirotic has been a key contributor this EuroLeague season, averaging 13 points and 3.1 rebounds per game over eight appearances.
