Milan, 23 December 2024 – Nel postponement of the 12th day of the regular season of the Serie A basketball championship EA7 Milan returns to success a month after its last success. At the Mediolanum Forum in Assago the hosts beat Trapani Shark 105-90 driven by Nikola Mirotic's 29 points with a 39 rating, putting an end to a negative streak of three defeats in the last week. to follow him Shavon Shields (22) collecting a 4/6 in long range shooting in twenty-eight minutes of use. The third fraction was decisive with a partial of 31-16 in favor of the Lombards which knocked out the team coached by Jasmin Repesa (an unforgotten former player thanks to the numerous trophies obtained on the bench of the red shoes) in whose ranks there are four men in doubles figure: Notae and Alibegovic with 21 points supported by Galloway (20) and Eboua (10). With this success Mannion and his associates put the misstep behind them both in Varese and in the Euroleague, thus consolidating eighth place in the standings and effectively gaining a victory over their opponent De Longhi Treviso in the next away match in Veneto.
The decisive turning point occurs with a partial pro Olimpia in the third quarter of the game
The start was decidedly in favor of the Sicilians who showed up for this event with both the second position in the ranking and the six victories in a row. Justin Robinson scores the bomb to make it 4-12 after four minutes of play. The American will then provide the assist which sends Petrucelli to deposit the +11 forcing Ettore Messina to time out. The result was an 11-0 run closed by Nenad Dimitrjievic following a suggestion from Leandro Bolmaro. Diop finds parity before Notae puts the +2 at the sound of the first siren (22-24). The inertia is reversed and Tonut achieves the +4. Olimpia is in the game and manages to repel Trapani's attacks with Notae but balance is the protagonist in this phase of the match (47-45 fifty-three seconds after returning to the locker room). After the break for hot tea we reach the climax of the contest. The EA7 puts his foot on the accelerator without leaving any escape for his opponents who are overwhelmed by the red and white wave. Shields from the charity line scores the maximum lead at 74-56. Petrucelli tries to partially reduce the gap with the same coin but Bolmaro's lay-up extends the lead again in the 30th minute (81-63). Notae's conclusion from 6.75 meters will be the last shout from the Sharks who confirm the excellent scoring average (first place overall for the islanders with 93.7 per game) in the face of a defensive performance to be reviewed. Garbage time will then take shape with Milan returning to enjoy the taste of triumph in the championship, adding another brick to the qualification for the next Final Eight of the Italian Cup in Turin, dangerously in doubt in light of the latest performances offered.
