According to televised statements by head coach Georgios Bartzokas for the Olympiacos-AS Karditsa game in the Greek Basket League, Milutinov is slated to return after two weeks.

The Serbian star had picked up an ankle fracture in the Round 15 Greek Basket League derby between Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens and Olympiacos. He later underwent surgery.

With Milutinov's return, Olympiacos's center rotation will be further strengthened, including names such as Moustapha Fall, Moses Wright, and Filip Petrusev.

In a season riddled with injuries, Milutinov is averaging 8.7 points and 5.8 rebounds for 15.3 PIR per game.
