Partizan Mozzart Bet’s guard Carlik Jones had to be carried off the court after suffering a serious ankle injury during a recent ABA League game. The 27-year-old was having a great game with nine points, six assists, and four rebounds before he got hurt in the fourth quarter. He was in a lot of pain and couldn’t put any weight on his left foot.
🤕 A Long Road to Recovery
After the game, medical tests revealed the bad news: Jones has a fracture in his foot. This serious injury is expected to keep him off the court for about three months. While he will likely miss the rest of the calendar year, the team hopes he can return later in the 2025-26 season to help them in the final stretch.
🤔 Tough Times for the Team
This injury is a major setback for Partizan, as they are already dealing with other player absences. Fellow guard Shake Milton is also recovering from an ankle injury, though he is expected back much sooner. With these players out, coach Zeljko Obradovic is left with only a few guards, including Duane Washington Jr., Sterling Brown, and the young Mitar Bosnjakovic, for their upcoming games.
展望 What’s Next for Partizan?
With their guard rotation suddenly so thin, Partizan may need to look for a new player to sign. The team, which has started its EuroLeague season with a solid 3-2 record, now faces a tough challenge. They will need to adjust quickly as they prepare for their next big EuroLeague match against Paris.
