Thomas Walkup will be out for at least four weeks due to a back injury, undergoing conservative treatment after his condition worsened following a rushed return for the Greek Cup.
Olympiacos Piraeus point guard Thomas Walkup will be sidelined for an extended period due to a back injury that is expected to keep him out for at least four weeks.
He will undergo conservative treatment, as his condition worsened after a rushed return, motivated by both his and the team's desire to compete in the Greek Cup.
Following a brief appearance of just 4:36 minutes in the quarterfinals, Walkup consulted doctors who recommended a month-long rehabilitation program without surgery.
Surgery is considered a last resort that everyone hopes to avoid. Until the end of March, Walkup will follow a treatment approach similar to that of Marius Grigonis at Panathinaikos.
His initial back discomfort began during a EuroLeague game against FC Bayern Munich on January 10, and further tests revealed that the earlier issue had not been fully resolved.
