“We brought to Milan a young player, whom we had been following for some time and who plays a position in which, because of our schedule, it is important to have alternatives,” said Olimpia general manager Christos Stavropoulos.

“I’m really happy about Coach Messina’s call and about the opportunity given to me. Olimpia is a club of the highest level and normally it represents a destination team for any player. Regarding me, instead, it is a starting point to work hard, improve, develop myself and try to help this great team. I can’t wait to start,” commented the newcomer.

Milan is currently missing Malcolm Delaney and so far both Jerian Grant and Troy Daniels haven't been particularly convincing, so making an addition in the backcourt makes sense for the Italian squad.

The 23-year-old Baldasso averaged 5.8 points (38.5% 3PT) and 1.6 assists in 8 Serie A games this season. Before coming to Milan, he was a member of Fortitudo Bologna.
