Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet Belgrade will open up their international season in the EuroLeague against LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne, but they will do it without one of their main guards.

The Serbian club did not register Yago dos Santos on the gameday roster.

There was a significant fuss before the game as Shabazz Napier was not initially registered on the scoreboard, but the mistake was later corrected, and the star guard will suit up for his new team.

Joel Bolomboy, Dejan Davidovac, and Nemanja Bjelica will not play against ASVEL as well.

For the first time in several years, Crvena Zvezda will return to play their home games in the Stark Arena. The club set a European basketball attendance record, with 24,232 fans watching a EuroCup game against Budivelnyk Kyiv in 2014.

ASVEL, meanwhile, haven't reported any injuries before the game.
