Olimpia Milan, Shavon Shields stops

Another tegola arrives for Olimpia Milano. The Red Shoes, in fact, in addition to having to deal with a complex start to the season, will also have to do without Shavon Shields, who è stopped due to injury during the last championship game against GeVi Napoli.

"Pallacanestro Olimpia Milano announces that, during last Sunday’s game against Napoli, Shavon Shields suffered a muscle injury in the right inguinal region that will be re-evaluated in two weeks" this is the medical report issued by the white and red club. 

The U.S. basketball player will miss the next three Euroleague games against Baskonia, Virtus Bologna and Real Madrid and the league challenges with Trento and Reyer Venezia. Olimpia Milano's hope would be to recover the player for the European double commitment with Alba Berlin and Partizan Belgrade.

Should the injury be more serious than expected, however, Shields could remain in the pits for up to a month, thus returning for the meeting with Fenerbahce, scheduled for Nov. 29.
