Nikola Milutinov to miss EuroLeague games due to injury

Olympiacos basketball player Nikola Milutinov will miss upcoming EuroLeague games against Zalgiris and Virtus due to a tendon injury. Coach Georgios Bartzokas confirmed that Milutinov is suffering from tendinitis and requires therapy and strengthening exercises to fully recover.

Milutinov originally sustained the injury on August 31 while playing for the Serbian national team. Following a brief appearance in the EuroLeague opening round against Baskonia, the club decided he should sit out to manage the pain. To address the roster gap, Olympiacos has signed American center Bryant Dunston to a one-year contract.
