The victory over the Spanish team marked Milano’s first win in Euroleague this season: “It’s a great feeling, I’m so happy for the players, they deserve it. We played great in the first three EuroLeague games, we are a new team and we know we’re a work in progress, but this first victory is so special for them. For many of the players it’s their first year in EuroLeague, and we have many injuries, so this kind of victory is special and means we can come into work tomorrow with a better feeling. I’m so proud of my players.”
Jordan Theodore was decisive for the Italian side especially in the final period. Here’s what Pianigiani had to say about the player: “I have total confidence in Jordan, it’s his first year in EuroLeague so it’s important for him to play with confidence and the desire to show something more every night. He has room to be better and better, because he’s always taken one step more throughout his career. Tonight he found the solution by attacking their point guards in the right way.”
