Brooklyn Nets big man Andrea Bargnani was in action on Sunday in Italy's second game of Group play in Eurobasket, while Bojan Bogdanovic was a DNP due to injury, as Croatia played against Greece.
Bogdanovic posted on Instagram and Twitter prior to the game, letting fans know that doctors did not want him to play against Greece despite his desire to suit up.
The second injury in just over a week. The luck obviously doesn't follow me recently. Thanks for all your support! pic.twitter.com/ResvRD9OTG

Doctors say I need to rest tonight but my desire to play against Greece is strong.
