Time for important choices in the Olimpia household

The celebration for the 30th Scudetto is not yet over, but, in the Olimpia household, thoughts are already turning to next season. There is the will to make the roster even stronger than the one that beat, in seven games, Virtus Bologna in the LBA Finals.

At the moment, the only players who have a guaranteed contract for next season are Melli, Tonut, Baron, Hall, Voigtmann and Biligha. Davies and Pangos, too, could theoretically stay but it seems clear that they are no longer considered useful to the red-and-whites project. Coach Messina aims, in particular, to convince Napier, Datome and Hines to stay for next season as well.

The point guard has made it known that he is comfortable in Milan but needs to talk with his family. Same for Datome and Hines, both beloved by the public and highly esteemed by coach Messina. The next few days will be decisive to understand the intentions of these three great players. Meanwhile, on the way out, there would be Alviti, Mitrou-Long (Thomas and Luwawu-Cabarrot have already said goodbye). Also to be understood are the positions of Baldasso and Ricci.
