AS Monaco announced on Saturday that guard Elie Okobo has been suspended temporarily for violating the club's internal rules. As a result, Okobo is currently separated from all team activities, calling into question his participation in the next Turkish Airlines EuroLeague double-round week, starting with Monaco's home game on Tuesday against Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz. Monaco also visits Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens on Thursday.
Okobo is Monaco's third leading scorer this season with 10.2 points per game in 19 appearances, three as a starter. Monaco, which reached the EuroLeague Final Four for the first time last season, currently sits in eighth place with a 10-9 record after suffering a pair of losses last week.
