CSKA guard Zoran Planinic did not take part in the Olympic qualifying game against Puerto Rico because of a stomach virus. Nevertheless, Croatia won 95-81 and took the first place in the group.

- I did not eat anything for the past two days because of a virus, - Planinic said to the press office of our club. - Moreover, yesterday the temperature rose to 39 degrees. But now everything is fine, I eat together with the team and I will certainly play the next game.
