Laso being in good health "is the most important thing," Chus Mateo said previewing the game.

"I wouldn't be able to tell you for sure if I'll be coaching through the entire series. Pablo is fine, regardless of whether or not he is for a game, he will continue being with us," Mateo said.

Pablo Laso was discharged from the hospital last Tuesday (June 7) after suffering a myocardial infarction two days earlier. Real Madrid's head coach spent the night at the hospital under observation.
