7DAYS EuroCup Round 10 game, Virtus Segafredo Bologna vs. Frutti Extra Bursaspor, suspended

The 7DAYS EuroCup Regular Season Round 10 game Virtus Segafredo Bologna vs. Frutti Extra Bursaspor, originally scheduled to be played on Wednesday, January 19, has been suspended. Bursaspor requested the suspension after several team members tested positive for COVID-19, which leaves the team without the minimum eight players on the Authorization List fit to play.

Following the Special Regulations due to COVID-19, approved by the ECA Shareholders Executive Board, each game can be rescheduled up to three times, if there are available dates. Euroleague Basketball will coordinate with the affected teams the best options to reschedule the games. Alternative dates will be announced on official Euroleague Basketball platforms.
