He will miss Monaco's opening four games at least
Nick Calathes out 3-4 weeks with knee injury
AS Monaco has confirmed that guard Nick Calathes will miss the start of the 2024-25 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague season after suffering a knee injury, which will keep him sidelined for the next three to four weeks.
Calathes joined Monaco in the summer after spending two years with Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul. The EuroLeague's all-time assists leader has reunited with former Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens teammate Mike James by signing for Monaco, while Georgios Papagiannis also made the switch from Fenerbahce to Monaco this offseason.
With Calathes expected to miss three to four weeks, he should be in line to return in Round 5 against Paris Basketball. Before then, Monaco face EA7 Emporio Armani Milan and Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv at home in Rounds 1 and 2, respectively, before travelling to take on FC Barcelona in Spain in Round 3 and heading back to Salle Gaston Medecin for a Round 4 clash against Virtus Segafredo Bologna.
