Bad situation for the Lithuanian winger and for Dinamo: the injury suffered by Bendzius during the Basketball World Cup in the Philippines is serious.
The Sassari club communicates this: «Following the injury that occurred during the Fiba World Cup with the Lithuanian national team, the athlete Eimantas Bendzius suffered an injury to his Achilles tendon. After the tests which took place first in the Philippines and then in Lithuania, according to the directives of the Lithuanian national team the player will have to undergo surgery. After the operation, recovery times will be evaluated."
Generally it takes at least six months to be able to return to the field and we are also talking about a 33-year-old player.
Dinamo will have to return to the market because they find themselves without one of the best shooters in the league: he averaged almost 15 points with 44% from three last season. And if it is true that Treier could have more space and Charalampopoulos himself can play as a "4", the absence of a player from the quintet is too heavy to bear in the period where the path to the Champions League and access to the Cup is decided Italy.
