Olimpia Milano: Messina loses Biligha but breathes a sigh of relief for Datome

From the infirmary comes two very important pieces of news for Olimpia Milano coach Ettore Messina regarding the injuries to Biligha and Datome. As for the Italian-Camerunian, tests have reported an injury of the middle collateral of his right knee. This problem will keep him off the court for some time. Better is the situation of Datome, who had exited prematurely during the last Euroleague game against Panathinaikos: examinations showed a mild sprain injury.

“Pallacanestro Olimpia Milano announces that during the game played with the Italian national team against Ukraine, Paul Biligha suffered an injury to the medial collateral of his right knee. The player will be re-evaluated in the coming days to identify the recovery time,” this is the statement issued by the biancorossi regarding the Italian-Camerunian.

“Pallacanestro Olimpia Milano announces that during the first quarter of the EuroLeague game with Panathinaikos, Gigi Datome suffered a sprained left ankle injury. The player has already started the necessary therapies and will be re-evaluated in the coming days,” this instead is the note issued regarding the former Fenerbahce player’s condition.
