In a Greek League match against Aris Thessaloniki, Nigel Williams-Goss exited the game in the middle of the second quarter and did not return.

The guard seems to have pulled his hamstring while coming off a screen. After getting rid of the ball, he immediately grabbed his left hamstring and went straight to the locker room.

After the half, it became clear that Luke Sikma would not finish the match as well. The veteran forward felt discomfort in his calf and did not compete in the second half.

Both players will undergo an MRI to determine the seriousness of the injuries. It is currently unclear how severe any of the two injuries are.

Previously, Moustapha Fall and Ignas Brazdeikis did not play in the first round of the new EuroLeague season.

Olympiacos are scheduled to face off against FC Barcelona in the EuroLeague on Friday, October 13th.
