FC Bayern Munich has apparently lost one of its key scorers for the rest of its Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Playoffs series after swingman Darrun Hilliard suffered a shoulder injury late in Game 1, which his team lost 77-67 on the road to FC Barcelona.

Hilliard was taken to the hospital after suffering what his coach said was a clavicle fracture in the fourth quarter. He had scored 12 points in the game until getting hurt.
"We have a very bad, serious injury to Hilliard; it looks like a broken collarbone," Bayern head coach Andrea Trinchieri said in the post-game press conference. "That shows how physical this game was."
Hilliard is Bayern's leading scorer this season with 13.7 points per game. He has played only 20 of the team's 32 total games, however, having appeared only once in the EuroLeague between late November and his return on April 6 due to a knee injury.
