Following the EuroLeague game against FC Barcelona on Thursday, Partizan Mozzart Bet Belgrade's forward Zach LeDay traveled back to the USA to attend to a serious family matter.

LeDay's father, Ricky Vincent LeDay, passed away on Saturday, March 16th. The Partizan's star player is still in the US and is not expected to play in the EuroLeague double week both against Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz and Real Madrid.

"Zach is in America," Partizan's head coach Zeljko Obradovic shortly said when asked about the player's availability during open practice on Monday.

It is currently unclear when and how LeDay will return after the tragic event.

In his third year with Partizan, LeDay is averaging 10.3 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 1.6 assists for 13.3 PIR in the EuroLeague this season.

With 13 wins and 16 losses, Partizan currently share 10th place in the EuroLeague standings with Valencia Basket and FC Bayern Munich.
