EA7 Emporio Armani Milan issued an injury update on Shavon Shields, confirming that initial tests showed no damage on his left knee. According to the press release, the 28-year-old forward will be re-evaluated in 48 hours. It's likely that Shields will be a game-time decision before the upcoming matchup against Real Madrid on Thursday.
More than four months after his injury on October 20, 2022, Shavon Shields returned to action this week. The 28-year-old played eight minutes in Valencia and 15 vs. Partizan. He went scoreless in both games. The Danish forward suffered a first injury at Cagliari in the pre-season and got to play only seven games between LBA and EuroLeague with EA7 Emporio Armani Milan.

EA7 Emporio Armani Milan will travel to Kaunas without four players, the team announced before the upcoming game vs. Zalgiris Kaunas. Luigi Datome remains sidelined after missing the game against Virtus Segafredo Bologna due to flu-like symptoms.
EuroLeague is a wild west for general managers, players, coaches, and everybody who wants to have at least some tiniest future projection. It's a league where the guaranteed contract is just relatively guaranteed for both sides. Smaller clubs usually can't retain players on a breakout year because wealthier franchises can just come and buy out the guy in the off-season.Â
Last week, EA7 Emporio Armani Milan lost their leader Shavon Shields to a left foot injury for a period of 6 to 8 weeks.

The players were selected through a voting process that included the media, fans and EuroLeague team captains, and head coaches.

Coming off the bench in all but one of his 35 appearances, Sloukas ranked fifth in the league in assists (4.9 APG.) and averaged a career-high 11.9 points per game. He also set career-highs in three-pointers and free throws made with 59 and 86, respectively, and counting.
Sloukas buried a game-winning jumper with 2 seconds remaining to sink Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul in Round 7 and beat the buzzer in overtime to defeat Anadolu Efes Istanbul in Round 23. The veteran playmaker stepped things up another notch during the postseason.
