AX Armani Exchange Milan confirmed an injury for Jeremy Evans ruling him out for the next two weeks. The Italian club noted a left thigh injury for the recently-acquired forward/center.
Per the press release: “Olimpia Milano reports that Jeremy Evans has suffered a strain in the adductor of his left thigh. The player will be re-evaluated in two weeks.”
Evans, 33, averaged 2.8 points and 2.8 rebounds per game in his first four appearances since returning to the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague one month ago.
The team led by Ettore Messina currently holds a 19-11 record and a chance to clinch a playoff berth with a win on the road versus TD Systems Baskonia on Friday and favorable results elsewhere. An 18-3 tally so far is good enough for first place in Italy’s LBA Serie A.
