Luwawu-Cabarrot, Napier’s performance gives Milan hope
Artículo
3 Min lectura
Coach Ettore Messina is a serious man and not one to give fans of his team false hope. With EA7 Emporio Armani Milan, even after Tuesday’s road win at Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul, still two wins outside the playoff zone with several teams in front of it, he knows the odds are stacked against his side. Nevertheless, a few lines he shared in his post-game interview were enough to remind Milan fans that the hope is very much alive.
Milan never trailed in beating Fenerbahce 75-82. The team's stars on the night were Shabazz Napier and Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot. The former scored 21 of his game-high 26 points to spark Milan. Luwawu-Cabarrot started strong and finished with 19 points, which tied his season-high.
Asked about Luwawu-Cabarrot's contributions, Messina responded: "Tim [Luwawu-Cabarrot] had a good game, but he's had already some big games for us. It's not easy for anybody to arrive in the middle of the season and get into the team and understand how you can help and what you should do. So today he had a very good game on both ends of the floor, offense and defense, and I just hope he continues like this."
The idea that it's not easy to join a team in the middle of the season is a given. But to win when the two biggest stars of the night are mid-season arrivals suggests that maybe they have completed their adjustments. Perhaps Napier and Luwawu-Cabarrot are now poised to lead a late charge and carry Milan into the playoffs.
The players themselves also will not give false hope. "We want all the wins we can get," Luwawu-Cabarrot said after the game.

Paris Basketball-Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul | RS Round 17 Highlights | 2024-25 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague
"It was definitely a team effort," Napier said after explaining how things changed for him in the second half.
No promises or big statements. But none are needed. Milan will take things one game at a time. A win on Friday over FC Bayern Munich could take it another step closer to the playoffs. And that's all Milan needs, for now, is to go one step at a time.
And with Napier and Luwawu-Cabarrot having found ways to maximize their contributions, Milan fans still have reasons to believe.
