Holding on down the stretch, EA7 Emporio Armani Milan defeated Givova Scafati, 83-78, in Beta Ricampi Arena on Sunday.
Recovering from losses to Olympiacos and Zalgiris through the first two-game week of the 2024-25 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Regular season, the team coached by Ettore Messina jumped to 3-1 in Italy’s LBA UnipolSai Regular Season.
Up to 22 points with 8/13 field goals, Armoni Brooks stood out for Scarpette Rosse. Nenad Dimitrijevic and Shavon Shields chipped in 13 and 11 points, respectively.
Besides Ousmane Diop (right ankle) and Josh Nebo (groin) staying on the injury list, Zach LeDay was ruled out with a light abductor strain. Fabien Causeur was sidelined as well.
The Round 4 affair between Virtus Segafredo Bologna and Bertram Derthona Tortona was postponed, a few hours before tipoff in Unipol Arena. Due to severe flooding after heavy rain in the area, the LBA cited public safety concerns. Considering Turkish Airlines EuroLeague and Basketball Champions League schedules, a new date will be decided.
