ALBA Berlin is set to be without versatile forward Yanni Wetzell for around six weeks due to an ankle injury, the club announced. Wetzell was injured early this week and could not help his team in a German League game on Monday night. ALBA center Christ Koumadje also missed that game due to a knee injury.
<br> Wetzell averaged 6.5 points, 2.8 rebounds and a PIR of 6.2 in 31 EuroLeague games last season, coming off the bench in all of them but one. This in his second season with ALBA. He is one of four New Zealanders to ever play in the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague, along with Kirk Penney, Mark Dickel and Tai Webster.
