Without its most valuable player, it risks competing in the match of the year Maccabi! THE Wade Baldwin he did not fly last night with the rest of the team’s mission to Belgrade, ahead of tomorrow’s play-in game with Baskonia Euroleague (20:00).

Reason, one bureaucratic problem, which is not easy to solve. According to Israeli media, it is doubtful whether the American guard will be able to fly to Serbia in time, but great efforts are being made to settle the matter. At best, Baldwin will fly tonight to Belgrade, but even if that doesn’t happen an effort will be made to go to Serbia even on the same day.

The 28-year-old former Olympiakos ace is having an amazing season with 17.7 points, 4.9 assists, 2.7 rebounds, 1.1 steals and 19.5 rating average.

It is noted that his participation is doubtful for Tuesday’s match John DiBartolomeo due to a shoulder problem.

Maccabi’s squad flew to Belgrade last night after two flight cancellations as the standoff with Iran led to several changes. In the end, Mr Odent Katas he trained his players at Maccabi’s headquarters and not in Belgrade, as originally planned.

Maccabi with a win on Tuesday will face Panathinaikos in the playoffs, while if they lose, then on Friday they will welcome the winner of Efes-Virtus Bologna to Belgrade, claiming the last ticket of the playoffs that leads to a match with Real.
