San Antonio Spurs forward Jeremy Sochan injured his calf while training with Poland’s national team, which will keep him out of the FIBA EuroBasket 2025 tournament that starts Aug. 27.
In an announcement by the Polish Basketball Federation, Sochan confirmed that he would miss EuroBasket but added that “doctors predict that I will be fully healthy” in time for the start of Spurs training camp.
The 22-year-old expects to return to San Antonio to continue his recovery.
“In the face of injury, Jeremy received professional help in Poland,” Spurs general manager Brian Wright said in the statement. “Cooperation with the staff and management of KoszKadry has always been exemplary. In this situation, however, the best option is to return to San Antonio.”
The ninth overall pick out of Baylor in 2022, Sochan has been a steady presence in the Spurs’ rotation. He has averaged 11.4 points, 6.1 rebounds and 2.8 assists in his first three seasons while shooting 46.8 percent from the field.
