Jokubaitis has trained with his teammates today and could return to the court tomorrow if he feels good. Brandon Davies, Pierre Oriola, and Cory Higgins remain out.

On March 24, Jokubaitis was diagnosed with a right shoulder sprain.

The 21-year-old sustained the injury in the EuroLeague battle against ALBA Berlin. With 8 minutes remaining in the duel, Jokubaitis collided with Christ Koumadje painfully and was forced to leave the floor.

The Lithuanian guard is averaging 7.8 points, 1.8 rebounds, 3.0 assists, and 8.4 PIR over 29 games (17 minutes) in the strongest continental league.

FC Barcelona (21-6) secured first place in the EuroLeague regular season and will face the eight-seed team in the playoffs.
