Tegola for Olimpia Milano, long stop Shavon Shields

Shavon Shields’ condition.

Bad news for Olimpia Milano.

During the first quarter of the Munich game, Shavon Shields suffered a tendon injury in his left foot. Shields’ condition will be reevaluated in six to eight weeks.

Last season, Ettore Messina’s team returned to win the Scudetto, snatching it from Virtus Segafredo Bologna. The red-and-whites, who had finished in second place in the regular season right behind Sergio Scariolo’s team, immediately brought the court factor to their side in the final series and never let the Felsinians catch them again. In the Euroleague, Sergio Rodriguez (who said goodbye to the Red Shoes in the summer to return to Spain) and his teammates were eliminated by Ergin Ataman’s Anadolu Efes, who would win the tournament for the second year in a row.
