The Russian champions went to Berlin without James.
According to a message posted from the Moscow club, on January 22, after the Euroleague match with Fenerbach Istanbul, an incident occurred in the team’s wardrobe, in which M. James was also involved.
The club decided to suspend the legionnaire and not allow him to train together or play in the match.
CSKA will make a final decision on the future of Mr. James in the next few days. There will also be clarification on the situation regarding the non-release of Mr. James for his grandfather’s funeral.

Delfi previously wrote that this season’s most productive Euroleague basketball player has parted ways with his teammates for the second time due to conflict with head coach Dimitri Itoudis.
There had been rumors in public that James was furious without being allowed to go to the United States, where he wanted to attend his grandfather’s funeral.
According to Sport Ekspress, a few days ago, an American faced his teammate Tornike Shengelia during a training session.
Last summer CSKA Moscow signed a three-year contract with James.
Rumors of a possible divorce were also heard in November, when the team leader was also not registered for a Euroleague match, because he expressed his discontent with D. Itoudis during training. Then Mr. James came back and started playing the best basketball of his career.
The American, who has not abused his individual actions recently, is averaging 19.9 points per game in the Euroleague, bouncing 3.5 balls and making 5.8 assists.
CSKA lost its leadership position in the Euroleague last week, leaving it in the hands of the Barça club. This was due to the defeat of the Istanbul Fenerbahche team by 83:89.
This meeting was the worst for James this season: “out of the game” only 27 percent. The CSKA legionnaire, who attacked with precision, was satisfied with 11 points and only 4 utility points.
The death of the grandfather was reported a week ago in a sensitive publication on the social network by M. James himself.
