On Sunday, Bayern's general manager Marko Pesic revealed that the 33-year-old joined the list of injured players.

"He is currently being operated on in Murnau near Munich. It doesn't look good. It's an injury of the Achilles tendon," Pesic told German television.

Rubit suffered the injury in the fourth quarter during the semifinal vs. ALBA Berlin. He left the court with the help of his teammates and exited the arena on crutches.

Rubit averages 10.9 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.4 assists, and 13.8 PIR per game in 20 EuroLeague contests. Recently, he was announced as the EuroLeague MVP for January.

In the upcoming game on Thursday, Bayern will play an away game against Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv.
