An injury in the biceps femoris muscle of the left leg sidelined 35-year-old Will Clyburn.
The experienced small forward is expected to sit out for approximately six weeks, FC Barcelona announced on Sunday, heading to Round 11 of the 2025-26 Liga Endesa Regular Season and a home game versus Joventut Badalona.
On Friday, Clyburn was forced to an early exit from Round 17 of the EuroLeague Regular Season opposite Kosner Baskonia in Palau Blaugrana. Tornike Shengelia (groin) and Juan Nunez (right knee surgery) were already out for the team coached by Xavi Pascual.
In contrast, Jan Vesely has been medically cleared to return to action against Badalona after one week on the sidelines due to an ankle injury.
With Kevin Punter recording a game-high 20 points, Barca went on to prevail, 90-80, and match its Catalonia rival at 7-4 in the ACB. Tomas Satoransky chipped in 16 points and seven assists, with his fellow Czech teammate Vesely reaching four points over 11:44.
For the team coached by Daniel Miret, Ante Tomic and Cameron Hunt stood out with 19 and 18 points, respectively.
