Eurodevotion was the first to bring attention to Shengelia's situation, indicating that he is expected to be sidelined for at least 10 days due to a low back pain problem. The same report suggests that his condition is not causing significant concern, and it will be monitored on a daily basis.
Sportando adds that a longer absence for Shengelia cannot be completely ruled out, but the optimistic outlook is that the Georgian forward should not be out of action for more than two weeks.
As a result of his back pain, Shengelia will be absent from the upcoming EuroLeague Round 22 game against LDCL ASVEL Villeurbanne on Thursday and the Italian League match versus Varese on Sunday.
The 32-year-old has been shining for third-placed Virtus, averaging 15.0 points, 5.7 rebounds, 3.7 assists, and a fifth-best 19.0 PIR over 21 EuroLeague games this season.
