Vesely took part in Barcelona's practice on Tuesday and will travel to Lithuania with the rest of the team.

Vesely sustained an injury during the team's ACB game against Monbus Obradoiro last Friday.

The Czech center suffered a lumbar discomfort that made him leave for the locker room. Once the medical staff completed the first examination, the club issued a statement explaining what happened.

"Jan Vesely, with acute lower back pain, is out for the remainder of the game against Obradoiro," the club reported last week.

Vesely averages 9.6 points, 3.9 rebounds, 1.5 assists, and 11.8 PIR per game over 36 EuroLeague appearances this season.

EuroLeague Final Four will take place on May 19-21 in Kaunas. Barcelona will face Real Madrid in the semifinal.
