More problems for Barcelona, which this season does not win to the disappointment of health problems. Will Clyburn could not play this Sunday against Dreamland Gran Canaria and will have to be out for about four weeks due to heart problems.
The Barça club issued a statement announcing the forward’s absence due to a health problem that had been “medically reversed although it requires pharmacological treatment and medical follow-up”.
According to ‘Mundo Deportivo’, it is a heart problem similar to the one that Tomas Satoransky also recently sufferedwho missed a few weeks of competition but has returned without setbacks after undergoing an ablation of the heart to correct arrhythmias.
Shengelia suffered it in the summer
Clyburn’s case is the third of a Barcelona player to suffer heart problems in less than nine months. Before him and Satoransky Tornike Shengelia went through that trance. The power forward thing was just before the start of last summer’s Eurobasket. He had just signed for the Barça team when he showed symptoms of exhaustion during the training camp with the Georgia team and had to go to the hospital. His participation in the tournament was doubtful until the debut against Spain, although he was finally able to play.
Clyburn’s loss is a new setback for a Barça that only has the Endesa League left to try to save the season. Now they are fighting to be seeded and have home court factor in the first round of the playoffs. With five games left, they are fourth, tied with Baskonia and one victory behind Valencia Basket and UCAM Murcia.
