October 1, Barcelona officially confirmed that the team's 21-year-old defender Juan Nunes will be out of the game for about 6 months due to surgery on his right knee. The

club announced that the meniscus cyst was removed during this operation, and the meniscus suture point in the first arthroscopic surgery in March last year was strengthened. Next he will enter a long healing process.

This is also his second major operation this year. Nunes had an operation in March this year because of a torn meniscus on the lateral side of his right knee. The recovery period given at that time was about 6 months, which means that he had actually recovered not long ago.

Nunez is the Spurs' No. 36 pick in 2024, but after being selected by the Spurs, he did not immediately enter the NBA, but signed with Barcelona for three years. Nunes averaged 5 points, 2.5 rebounds and 3.4 assists in the Champions League last season.
