"He was resting for a few days, but he is feeling much better," Zeljko Obradovic said of Exum. "He will be in the team. He was training and there was no problem, although he had a serious hamstring issue."

Exum participated in the team practice this morning. He was not restricted.

Partizan will have a possibility to complete a sweep against Real on Tuesday night.

The black-and-white team is leading the playoff series 2-0. Game 3 is scheduled at Stark Arena in Belgrade at 20:30 CEST.

A massive fight broke out in Game 2 between Real and Partizan players, causing last Thursday's match to be ended prematurely. In the process, Exum was injured after Guerschon Yabusele's bodyslam.

The Aussie left the court with the help of his teammates. The initial diagnosis showed the tendon in his second toe to be ruptured.

Three days ago, Telegraf reported that additional tests confirmed that Exum did not suffer any fractures.

Former NBAer was seen leaving the WiZink Center with crutches.
