Medical update: Ben Griscti
Dark textured background

Adelaide 36ers centre Ben Griscti will miss the start of the Hungry Jacks NBL26 Season after scans confirmed the extent of a neck injury suffered while training in Canberra on Saturday.

Ben was injured when a backboard collapsed on top of him during the team’s shoot around at the AIS Arena, ahead of the side’s final NBL Blitz game.

Scans have since confirmed the 23-year-old has suffered a fractured vertebrae but he won’t require surgery and is expected to make a full recovery.

He has travelled home to Adelaide and a timeline for him to return to the court will not be set until he is able to get further medical advice to determine the next steps around the management of the injury.
