The fears were unfortunately confirmed… The tests done by Giorgos Papagiannis showed that he has suffered a torn cruciate ligament which means he misses the rest of the seasonas reported by Anadolu Efes in its update.
The good thing, as reported by the Turkish media, is that the meniscus has not been damaged, which facilitates his recovery.
The ace of Efes will undergo an operation in the coming days and will begin recuperation to overcome the serious problem.
In such cases of injuries o recovery time is estimated at around eight months.

Strasna perjema Papajanisa. Da stvar bude neverovatnija i gora po Kokoskova earlier tokom meca se pvredio i Osmani.
Don’t forget da je Poarije vec van terena i bice jos neko vreme.
Peh za pehom za Efes i srpskog strucnjaka. pic.twitter.com/IW6gM9EuSL
