After missing the EuroBasket tournament and the first months of the season, Nikola Kalinic will be returning to action in Thursday’s (14/12) EuroLeague game of Fenerbahce against Zalgiris Kaunas, in Istanbul.

The Serbian forward announced the news himself via his Instagram profile. “I’m finally back and ready,” he wrote. “See you tomorrow at Ulker arena”.

Kalinic had been suffering from persistent problems and pain following a back injury he sustained during the summer. These issues didn’t allow him to join the Serbian national team in the EuroBasket campaign, even though he was present and the prep camp, and kept him out until now.

Defending EuroLeague champion Fenerbahce is 8 – 3 while Zalgiris Kaunas stands at a 6-5 record.
