The team coached by Andrea Trinchieri was supposed to travel to Milan today to go up against AX Armani Exchange next Friday. However, that game was also suspended after the German side failed to field the minimum 8 players required due to the latest COVID spree among their team members.

Per the official announcement:

"The Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Regular Season Round 30 game AX Armani Exchange Milan vs. FC Bayern Munich scheduled to be played on Friday, March 18 has been suspended.

Bayern requested the suspension after several team members tested positive for COVID-19, which leaves the team without the minimum eight players on the Authorization List fit to play.

Following the Special Regulations due to COVID-19, approved by the ECA Shareholders Executive Board, each game can be rescheduled up to three times, if there are available dates.

Euroleague Basketball will coordinate with the affected teams the best options to reschedule the games. Alternative dates will be announced on official Euroleague Basketball platforms."
