Kevin Punter Injury at Barcelona: Out for Three Weeks
Barcelona captain Kevin Punter suffered an ankle injury in the Breogán game. The guard is expected to miss about three weeks, including the EuroLeague games against Panathinaikos and Crvena Zvezda.
Barcelona received important injury news ahead of a busy EuroLeague schedule. Team captain Kevin Punter injured his ankle in the league game against Breogán and will be out of action for about three weeks.
According to Eurohoops, tests on Monday morning revealed a problem in the 33-year-old guard's ankle. Punter is not expected to play in the away game at Panathinaikos. He is also expected to miss the EuroLeague games against Crvena Zvezda and Fenerbahce.
The club's goal is to get Punter ready for the game against Real Madrid on December 3. However, given the three-week projection, he will need to race against the clock to be available for that match.
This season in EuroLeague, Punter averages 15.9 points and 2 rebounds per game over 10 matches, producing 14.8 efficiency points per game. In seven games in the Spanish league, he has averaged 10.4 points.
