CSKA informed on Monday that Mike James suffered another loss in his family and will travel to the USA. The Oregon-born guard will miss the next Turkish Airlines EuroLeague and VTB United League matches, as noted in the press release.
Per CSKA:
Mike James to miss the upcoming games
Our team’s guard Mike James was forced to leave to the USA due to another loss in his family that requires his presence.
We express our deepest condolences to Mike.
The leading scorer of the 2020-21 EuroLeague season averages 20.8 points, 5.8 assists, 3.5 rebounds, and 1.1 steals in a stellar campaign marked him missing one game earlier in the season and more recently two more.
The Russian powerhouse standing at 16-8 is currently second in the EuroLeague standings.
