Spain were dealt a massive blow ahead of their Eurobasket defence at the end of the month when Sergio Llull was carried off with a suspected knee injury.
Llull was helped off in the first quarter of Spain’s 89-71 defeat to Belgium in a preparation game.

The guard was rushed to a local hospital for medical examination and everyone is expecting the verdict of the doctors about the condition of his right knee within the next days.
