With just the German League (BBL) in mind, ALBA Berlin will enter the final stages of the season without at least one of their players.

The German club announced that Matteo Spagnolo will undergo surgery and will miss the remainder of the season.

The Italian guard will be out for three to four months due to a foot injury, ALBA added.

Comments:

There is no better head-to-head result because they didn't play against each other for schedule an sickness reasons. There are at least two players out for season: Spagnolo and Procida. Samar, Wetzell, Thiemann, Thomas are also serioulsy injured. Koumadje has to sit out for five games becauso oder league sanction. Last game they played with mostly german players - junios some - and still won. A season full of bad luck.
