Smith's injury at Reggiana looks promising

Within Pallacanestro Reggiana, there is cautious optimism about Speedy Smith's condition. According to the Reggio Emilia newspaper Quotidiano Resto del Carlino, the problem he suffered in his right knee during the Cantù game is not as serious as first thought. Smith underwent a magnetic resonance imaging scan and an initial examination, but additional tests are needed to determine the exact recovery time.

If the first impressions are confirmed, the injury could be a manageable one lasting no more than a few weeks. The club's transfer strategy will also become clearer after this medical report. It is reported that Rob Edwards is the most important name who could be left out of the squad. However, if Smith is sidelined for a long time, giving up on the American foreign player could also be risky.

If the point guard stays away from the court for a long period, another player could be signed temporarily to replace Smith. This would immediately give Dimitris Priftis an alternative in the rotation.
