According to the club's official announcement, the American guard is set to miss approximately 10 days due to a muscle strain, pending additional examinations.

James is fighting a tough injury battle this season. Just a week before, the American guard exited the game against ASVEL LDLC Villeurbanne due to an ankle injury.

James is one of the brightest Euroleague stars this season, averaging 14.8 points, 3 rebounds, 5 assists, and 15.2 PIR for Monaco.
