Gabriel Deck was not registered for the Spanish Liga Endesa (ACB) matchup against Monbus Obradoiro on Sunday. It is currently unclear whether the Argentinian forward will be able to suit up against Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz on Wednesday.

"Deck received a bad blow and was left out of the squad today to see if he recovers," head coach Chus Mateo said after the victory.

"We have played 73 games counting the one against Dallas [Mavericks]. There are many games throughout a season and we need to control loads and ensure there are no injuries, but sometimes it is impossible," Mateo explained.

In the first two games of the series, Deck averaged 7 points and 2 assists per game in 19 minutes of playing time. His numbers were better throughout the entire season - 8.9 points and 3.4 rebounds for 9.9 PIR.

Game 3 between Baskonia and Real Madrid is scheduled for Wednesday, May 1st, at 21:00 CET.
