Milwaukee basketball player and Greek national team player Janis Adetokumbo had an operation on his left knee, the club announced, and today the media reports that his performance at the upcoming World Cup is uncertain.
"He had routine surgery on his left knee and it went well," new Milwaukee coach Adrian Griffin said.
Griffin added that he hopes the two-time NBA MVP will be ready for training camp, which is scheduled for September.
According to the American "Athletic", which refers to a source from the NBA, the wing center could miss the planetary review, as he underwent an operation to "remove a fragment of cartilage from his left knee".
The Greek national basketball team will play at the World Cup in Group C with the United States of America, Jordan and New Zealand.
Greece will play the group stage in the Philippine city of Pasay.
The World Cup takes place in Japan, Indonesia and the Philippines from August 25 to September 10.
