While Eduardo Camavinga watches the Rams defeat the Saints in Los Angeles and Vinicius Jr. stands courtside as the Clippers fall in Oklahoma City, the Real Madrid combo makes the most of their injuries.

On Thursday night, Real Madrid players Eduardo Camavinga and Vinicius Jr. were spotted going to athletic events in the United States. The players took advantage of their time away from the treatment table by taking a vacation across the Atlantic, even though they were wounded and could not participate in Real Madrid’s La Liga match versus Alaves in Spain. They were seen at different games on the same night, despite the fact that they were both in the United States.

Prior to the pivotal game between the Los Angeles Rams and New Orleans Saints at SoFi Stadium, Camavinga, who sustained a knee ligament injury while serving with France on the international scene, was spotted on the sidelines. In California, he saw an intriguing game as the Rams held on to increase their hopes of making the playoffs while the Saints came dangerously close to pulling off a comeback. Carrying a Rams scarf in his hands, Camavinga strolled down the sideline with his entourage, looking happy. He was not the only notable sports star in attendance, as baseball sensation Shohei Ohtani was also present, enjoying his offseason after signing a $700 million, 10-year contract with the LA Dodgers.

Conversely, Vinicius Jr. made the trip to Oklahoma City to see the Thunder play the highly talented Clippers at Paycom Arena. The Brazilian forward watched from courtside as Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s outstanding play helped the Thunder snap the Clippers’ nine-game winning streak. From the front row, Vinicius was seen grinning on camera, holding his own personalized Thunder jersey. James Harden, who scored 23 points, and Paul George, who added 22 for the Clippers, both had outstanding games. Kawhi Leonard was absent from the game due to a bruised right hip. Former Thunder player Russell Westbrook received a standing ovation and enthusiastic cheers when he entered the game as a reserve for the Clippers in the first quarter. Westbrook

Camavinga and Vinicius Jr. made the most of their stay in the USA by taking in the culture and attending sporting events despite their injuries. These encounters probably gave them a much-needed break from their recuperation procedures and enabled them to encourage sportsmen to pursue other sports.
