“He has a bit of back pain. We have to see if he can do something today and be ready for tomorrow. I can’t really give an update,” said national coach Gordon Herbert on Saturday afternoon (local time) in Okinawa. Training was scheduled for the evening.
Looking ahead to the game against superstar Luka Doncic and Co. on Sunday (1:10 p.m. LIVETICKER), the Canadian has a plan B in mind. “Maodo Lo and Justus Hollatz played well. That’s the tournament, sometimes someone goes down. Dennis is a tough competitor, a tough kid. I think if he can, he will play.”
Schröder sustained the injury in Friday’s 100-73 win over Georgia when he went into the dressing room in the third quarter, returned later and watched the rest of the game from the bench. Previously, the NBA professional had 16 points from the Toronto Raptors. Germany could probably cope with a loss against Slovenia, as both teams are already qualified for the quarter-finals in Manila. It’s still about winning the group.
