Diop suffered a left-knee bone bruise with associated soft-tissue damage. Kurucs (ankle) and Howard (knee) will be monitored daily

Kosner Baskonia released a medical report after injuries sustained vs Surne Bilbao (Liga Endesa Round 20). The most significant issue is Khalifa Diop, who hurt his left knee on the opening tip. Tests confirmed a bone bruise with associated soft-tissue injury, and he will miss the next games, with his return timeline depending on progress.

Rodions Kurucs picked up a left-ankle sprain late in the game and will be evaluated day by day ahead of the Copa del Rey. The same applies to Markus Howard, who has a left-knee contusion and will also be day-to-day heading into the cup.
