The EuroLeague matchup between FC Barcelona and Anadolu Efes Istanbul on Thursday featured two notable conflicts, one of them being between Barca's head coach Sarunas Jasikevicius and forward Nikola Kalinic.

The Serbian player was sent to the locker room in the second half of the match for what was later explained to be an act of disrespecting the team.

"Nikola disrespected the team, we will deal with it internally," Saras explained in the post-game press conference.

Angels Fabregues from Sport.es now reports that the hatchet has been buried between the two sides. The team held a video session to review the game against Efes on Friday. The conflict between Saras and Kalinic was discussed before it, and both the player and the coach solved the issue.

The journalist reports that the player will receive no punishment for the incident. Additionally, Kalinic should also be included in the game squad on Sunday in an ACB match against Joventut Badalona.
