Anadolu Efes Istanbul will be without swingman PJ Dozier for the next 4-6 weeks after he suffered a tear in his right thigh.
Dozier's absence comes at a time when Efes is having to deal with the long-term injuries of Georgios Papagiannis and Vincent Poirier, while Rodrigue Beaubois is recovering from elbow surgery.
"PJ Dozier, who was injured during yesterday's game against Besiktas GAIN Istanbul, has been diagnosed with a second-degree tear in the back of his right thigh, and treatment has been initiated immediately," read Efes's statement.
"Our doctor, Uğur Diliçıkık, has stated that our player will be sidelined for 4-6 weeks."
Dozier, who had his best outing of the season so far in Round 9 by posting a career-high 34 points and a career-best 34 PIR, has averaged 10.0 points, 2.6 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.0 steal in seven games for Efes in 2025-26.
