Baldwin returned to action on Thursday after missing the previous two games. However, Baldwin played only 7 minutes and finished the game with 3 points, 3 assists, and 5 PIR.

The 28-year-old hurt his hamstring again. The scorer suffered a slight tear in Game 1.

As Shkedy reports, Baldwin will undergo additional tests over the weekend. Maccabi hope that the tear in the hamstring was not aggravated, and the expectation is that Baldwin will be sidelined for a few weeks.

Shkedy notes that no one in Maccabi camp expects Baldwin to play in Game 5.

This season, Baldwin averages 17.4 points, 2.5 rebounds, 4.9 assists, and 19.1 PIR per game in 30 EuroLeague appearances.
