Big two in injury concers

Zoran Planinic is definitely out for TAU, after suffering an ankle injury against Valladolid in the Spanish league on Sunday, and the Croatian faces at least three weeks on the sidelines.

The former New York Nets man has averaged 11.3 points and 4.9 assists in the Euroleague so far.

Meanwhile, Olympicaos are sweating on the fitness of their key guard Alan Acker, who sat out the whole of the second-half of their Greek League game with AEK Athens at the weekend.

Acker has travelled to Victoria and should play some part in the TAU game, but how significant an impact he will be able to make remains to be seen.

The American has been in top form in the Euroleauge this season, averaging 16 points, and he had 25 points when the two sides met in their Euroleague opener which was won by the Greeks.

Both sides hold a 6-1 record in Group A and look like potential final four teams.
