Olympiacos are waiting for the results of Moses Wright's medical tests. The American big man might miss up to 3 months of action.
Olympiacos Piraeus lost to Partizan Mozzart Bet Belgrade for EuroLeague Round 12, playing without Sasha Vezenkov and Moses Wright.
While Vezenkov's condition isn't worrisome, and the Bulgarian forward is expected to be back shortly, the same doesn't apply to Wright's case.According gazzetta.gr's Konstantinos Melayess, the American big man, has contracted a germ, and the club has reason to believe that he might be facing a long-time absence, which could amount to 3 months.
The initial diagnosis of Wright was a respiratory infection, and the estimates had him sidelined for a period of 15 days. However, the player continues to receive treatment at the hospital, where he was admitted the previous days (since the beginning of the week). The medical staff is constantly monitoring his condition and conducting all medical tests.
Due to medical confidentiality, many details of his condition cannot be released.
Wright has averaged 4.7 points, 2.4 rebounds, 0.5 assists, 0.6 steals, and 0.3 blocks over 11 EuroLeague outings this season. He averaged 11.7 points, 4.8 rebounds, 0.5 assists, and one block in the Greek Basket League.
