After a muscle injury to the adductors of his left thigh, Leandro Bolmaro of EA7 Emporio Armani Milan will be sidelined for at least two to three weeks.
Bolmaro, 24, was hurt during Friday’s game against Partizan Mozzart Bet in Belgrade. From Round 10 of the 2024-25 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Regular Season, he was ruled out from Monday’s meeting with Vanoli Cremona in Round 8 of Italy’s LBA UnipolSai Regular Season.
Over 14 games across all competitions this season, the Argentine guard averaged 7.6 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 2.7 assists per contest.
The Milan outfit projected a timeline until being re-evaluated on Tuesday morning.
Besides Bolmaro, Nenad Dimitrijevic did not participate in the winning effort opposite Cremona in PalaRadi, affected by flu-like symptoms.
In better news for head coach Ettore Messina, Shavon Shields tallied one rebound over 12 minutes on Monday. Recovering from a groin injury, the 30-year-old forward made his first appearance since late October.
With Josh Nebo expected to miss several more weeks, Scarpette Rosse is looking for injury relief through 27-year-old center Freddie Gillespie.
With a 4-6 start to the 34-game double-legged round-robin schedule of the EuroLeague Regular Season, Olimpia Milan trails the Play-In Showdown zone by one game. Moving to Round 11, Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv visits the Unipol Forum on Thursday.
In the Regular Season of the domestic league, the quest for a fourth consecutive LBA championship carries a 6-2 W-L tally, two games behind leading Dolomiti Energia Trento.
