Disappointment at PAOK, Yannick Franke is out for up to a month and a half
Yannick Franke’s injury, who has already had an operation on his hand, turned out to be serious.
Without Yannick Franke, the Netherlands national team will go to EuroBasket 2022 barring a shocking emergency as the veteran goalscorer was injured in the friendly against France and has already undergone rehabilitation surgery that will keep him out of action for a month and a half.
Franke, who was the Netherlands’ top scorer with 21 points, suffered a fracture of the third metacarpal, according to KAE PAOK, an injury that was serious enough especially by the standards of the preseason start at the time.
“KAE PAOK and all its members are in constant communication with Yanik Franke, who we wish a speedy recovery as soon as possible” report the inhabitants of Thessaloniki on paokbc.gr.
