The absence of Shavon Shields is becoming a problem for Olimpia Milano.

According to La Prealpina, given the situation the Milanese club would be offered Avery Bradley, former Los Angeles Lakers with 10 years of NBA experience, and former Real Madrid Jeffery Taylor.

However, Ettore Messina reportedly said no, preferring to grit his teeth and see the results of the next 10 days of competitions, which will see his team grappling with Zalgiris, Efes and Fenerbahçe.

Last season, Ettore Messina’s team came back to win the Scudetto, shaking it off Virtus Segafredo Bologna. The red-and-whites, who had finished second right behind Sergio Scariolo’s team in the regular season, 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.
