L’Olimpia Milano beat Pistoia 95-80 in the game valid for the 26th day of Serie A basketball. A game marked by the illness of coach Ettore Messina, who left the team at the end of the first half due to a severe migraine.

“Ettore had a strong migraine, he was already unwell before the start of the game, he tried, but at halftime he had to go home”, said deputy Mario Fioretti after the game.

“We struggled defensively in the first two quarters, playing not so well on offense, but managing to be effective. After halftime we adjusted things a bit on defense, making a partial right away, then maintaining a decent level of intensity, against a Pistoia team that struggled. Thanks to my colleagues”.

On the injured: “Bolmaro and Shields are the clearest situations. For Leandro the operation went well, Shavon is recovering. It is not a serious injury. On Nebo no one can pronounce, while on Causeur we are waiting how his back reacts”.
