Ettore Messina, the head coach of Milano, spoke ahead of tomorrow’s clash in the 22nd round of the EuroLeague, where his team will face Valencia.
The Italian expert emphasized the numerous injured players from the “Fashion Capital.” However, he announced that Shavon Shields might play for about ten minutes, and the possibility of new addition Rodney McGruder is also on the table.
“We will play against a healthy Valencia team, a team that has been playing exceptionally well lately, including games that did not result in win, such as the one against Panathinaikos and the overtime against Real Madrid. We need to find energy and consistency to achieve a much-needed away win. Unfortunately, some players are still missing, but we have been working well in recent days. We hope that Shields can play at least 10 minutes, and McGruder will help the team inject energy on both ends of the court,” said Ettore Messina.
Milano currently has a record of nine wins and twelve losses. Valencia is the next opponent with a current record of 10 wins and 11 losses.
