Olimpia Milano backs coach Peppe Poeta amid early-season struggles
Olimpia Milano is facing a difficult start to the season after losses to Baskonia, Verona and Maccabi.
The Italian club is preparing to host Nutribullet Treviso in Round 3 of the league.
The team’s results have raised questions about head coach Peppe Poeta’s position, but the club has reaffirmed its confidence in him.
Poeta says the team will need more time than expected to develop and must address problems from its opening games.
The situation has also brought transfer rumors, including a possible move for power forward Jabari Parker.
Parker finished last season with Badalona and returned to Partizan, where he is reportedly not part of the team’s plans.
Olimpia is looking for answers on the court, while any move for Parker remains a possibility rather than a confirmed signing.
