Captain Jaka Blažič to Be Sidelined for an Extended Period Due to Wrist Injury

Captain of Cedevita Olimpija’s senior team, Jaka Blažič, seriously injured his wrist during the last game against Beşiktaş, which took place in Stožice on Wednesday. Following detailed medical examinations and consultations with specialists, it was confirmed that he has suffered a partial rupture of the ligaments in his wrist, meaning Blažič will need to take an extended break from playing on the basketball court.

A precise rehabilitation plan tailored to his recovery is currently being developed, and it is expected that his absence will last for a significant period.

Captain Jaka is a key member of our team, renowned for his leadership, tenacity, and positive influence both on and off the court. He demonstrated this during the European Cup home match against Beşiktaş, when, despite his injury, he wanted to return to the court to help his teammates secure the victory. The club’s management, coaching staff, and all his teammates extend their full support to the captain during this challenging time and wish for his swift return to top form.

Everyone at the club is confident that Jaka, with his perseverance and fighting spirit, will overcome this obstacle and return to the court even stronger.

We will keep the public informed about further developments regarding this situation.
