The 31-year-old was admitted to the hospital after suffering severe pain. As the tests have shown, the pain was caused by a kidney stone.

Following the news, the player has since sent a message about it.

"Kidney stones are not it," Canaan wrote in his Instagram story. "Can't hold me down though! I'm feeling better and will be back soon! Thanks for everyone checking in on me! I'm good!"

At the moment, it is unclear how much time Canaan will have to miss. He played in both Olympiacos EuroLeague double-round games this week.

Canaan averages 5.6 points, 0.8 rebounds, 0.9 assists, and 2.2 PIR in 19 games this season.

In an 85-83 victory against Virtus Segafredo Bologna, the American guard contributed with 2 points (1/3 2PT, 0/5 3PT), 1 rebound, 2 assists, and -2 PIR.
