Overview

• An official Serbian Federation statement confirms a ruptured hamstring and rules the national team captain out for the rest of the tournament.
• The injury occurred on a drive late in the second quarter against Portugal, after which Serbian and Clippers medical staffs assessed the damage.
• In agreement with Los Angeles, he will return to the U.S. for intensive rehabilitation overseen in coordination with the Clippers.
• Serbia is 3–0 in Group A and will continue EuroBasket without its primary wing and leader.
• The setback puts a spotlight on his 2025–26 availability; he played 30 games for the Clippers last season and is due just over $16 million with a 2026/27 club option.
