Some worrisome news in Olympiacos Piraeus camp as Thomas Walkup had to leave the practice early.

As multiple reports in Greek media state, Olympiacos point guard left the practice due to back pain. Walkup is scheduled for more medical tests.

Walkup wasn't the only absentee from practice. Kostas Papanikolaou missed the training session due to a virus he's having.

At the moment, both players are expected to make the trip to Barcelona, but their availability for Game 1 remains unknown.

Walkup averages 8.7 points, 3.1 rebounds, 4.8 assists, and 10.3 PIR per game in 33 appearances for Olympiacos this season.

Meanwhile, Papanikolaou puts up 7.4 points, 3.6 rebounds, 2.9 assists, and 9.4 PIR per game in 34 appearances.

Game 1 between FC Barcelona and Olympiacos is scheduled for Wednesday at 21:00 CET.
