Verona wants to integrate Barbitch quickly

Scaligera Verona has returned to training following its defeat away to Trieste. The club's top priority is to integrate new signing Milan Barbitch into the team as quickly as possible.

According to a report in the L'Arena newspaper, the French guard played 12 minutes at PalaRubini despite having spent only about a week and a half in training. In that time Barbitch made one shot attempt, hitting half of his shots, and committed one turnover. The absence of CJ Massinburg, who ranks second in assists and scoring for the team, also limited the young player's contribution.

Head coach Alessandro Ramagli's goal is to field three available playmakers in Saturday's game against Varese. For that reason, Brockington's situation is being closely monitored. The club will decide whether to use the player against Varese or wait until the postponed game against Bologna on 9 November.

When Brockington is fully fit, Verona will have four playmaking options. Massinburg's return to the court will strengthen the roster further.
