Soon, the Russian basketball giant himself confirmed that the American will return to the team in the next game.
The CSKA leader also described the situation in his tweet.
“On January 8, my grandfather, who had lost his battle with lung cancer, went to Anapilin and from that moment on, many changes occurred in my personal life. I really did not handle this situation in the most appropriate way for myself or the club that I represent. CSKA and I will solve everything within and as one team, ”he wrote.
The conflict between James and CSKA arose after the Moscow club failed to release the basketball player to the funeral of a very close grandfather.
The dissatisfied 30-year-old, 185 cm tall legionnaire was suspended and did not participate in two Euroleague matches. Curiously, in addition to their leader, CSKA achieved a very difficult victory in Berlin against ALBA (71:68) and lost at home to Bayern Munich 66:69. The Muscovites suffered the last failure after losing the decisive throw: M.James was a specialist in such situations.
CSKA has officially named the conflict with James as an incident in the team locker room.
“There is a problem and we are looking for a solution that allows everyone to achieve a common goal,” Andrei Vatutin, director of CSKA, told the TASS news agency on Friday.
However, after the conflict, CSKA and James reached a compromise. On Saturday CSKA had a general team meeting where the club’s decision was presented.
James accumulates an average of 31 minutes each in the Euroleague this season. 19.9 points, 3.5 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 20.6 utility points.
The US contract with CSKA is valid until 2023.
CSKA is in second place with 16 wins and 7 losses in the Euroleague.
