Olimpia Milano, Coach Poeta Celebrates: Nebo’s Successor Has Been Found

It hasn’t been made official yet, but as reported by Realolimpiamilano, the deal is reportedly already done, to the point that the announcement is considered a foregone conclusion. Following negotiations conducted with determination and intelligence, Armani Olimpia Milano has reportedly secured Moses Wright.

The 27-year-old big man seemed destined to wear a Barcelona jersey, but due to the many uncertainties surrounding the Blaugrana club, Armani Olimpia Milano stepped in and ultimately convinced the now-former Zalgiris center to don their red-and-white colors.

This is a major coup for Armani Olimpia Milano and, above all, for Coach Poeta, who finally has the big man he’s been looking for since Nebo’s departure. Moses Wright is coming off a season in which he literally dominated while playing for Zalgiris Kaunas (averaging 13.2 points and 6.5 rebounds per game in the EuroLeague).

At this point, to complete the 2026–27 roster, only a wing player is needed. Many names are being mentioned, and the team is also keeping an eye on the NBA Summer League. In short, it’s only a matter of time.
