Shane Larkin’s injury was serious. Turkey defender scores against Spain in group stage EuroBasket.
An experienced player flew to Istanbul on a private flight to take tests. The conclusion says that the fingers of the hand are seriously injured and he will have to undergo surgery.
The Turks are competing with the French on Saturday for reaching the quarterfinals, and Ergin Ataman will not have a big attacking “weapon” at his disposal. The 29-year-old defender will also play the first games against Anatol Efes after tests showed he would be out for about two months.
“It was a big shock. I expected him to return, but EuroBasket is over for him,” Ataman said.
