Overview

• Mumbru is still in a Barcelona clinic nearly four weeks after Germany’s EuroBasket title, according to media reports.
• Reports from Mundo Deportivo say he lost about 16 kilograms and was fed intravenously for weeks before starting semi-solid food this week.
• He is expected to stay hospitalized for roughly 10 more days before continuing recovery at home, with a cholecystectomy planned to lower relapse risk.
• The German Basketball Federation confirmed his inpatient admission on September 15 and, per dpa, is planning for his return for World Cup qualifying starting in late November.
• The illness forced him to miss much of EuroBasket, with assistant Alan Ibrahimagic handling coaching duties, and he returned to Spain after the final for ongoing care.
