After losing to Zalgiris Kaunas last week, LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne are looking to bounce back against Crvena Zvezda mts Belgrade in the EuroLeague today. However, they might battle against the Serbian team without one of their leaders.

According to French news outlet Le Progres, Nando de Colo may not suit up for the battle due to a muscle contusion.

De Colo is the top scorer of the French team, averaging 12.7 points per contest. Additionally, he grabs 2.4 rebounds and dishes out 4 assists per game for 14.7 PIR.

The 35-year-old guard is a two-time EuroLeague champion. This year, he returned to his home country of France to finish his career closer to his origins.

"I don't have a French championship title yet, so we can start there. Afterward, the project, in general, pleased me," de Colo told back in summer. "To be honest, I was in contact with two, three clubs, Monaco and Valencia above all. Each time I was asked the question, I explained it the same way."

ASVEL will face the renewed Crvena Zvezda with newly-appointed head coach Dusko Ivanovic, who reportedly held an extended practice recently.

With 3 wins and 4 losses, the French club currently sits in 13th place in EuroLeague standings.
