Olympiacos will travel to Barcelona today for their Euroleague playoff opener against the home team tomorrow, but they may be without two key players.
Thomas Walkup sat out yesterday’s practice due to back pain, while Kostas Papanikolaou could not participate due to a virus. Walkup has started every Euroleague game he has played this season, while Papanikolaou has started 29 of 34 games.
It remains to be seen if either player will be able to suit up for tomorrow’s game. If they are unable to play, it would be a major blow to Olympiacos, who are looking to upset the top-seeded Barcelona team.
