This week's EuroLeague game between EA7 Emporio Armani Milan and Panathinaikos Athens will have a special touch before the game.

The match will be dedicated to a former player of the Italian team Vladimir Micov, the team officially announced.

The now-retired forward will be honored during the team presentation and will receive a special commemorative jersey to celebrate his time with the club.

Starting in 2017, Micov spent four seasons with Olimpia Milan, winning the Italian Cup (2021) and the Italian League once (2018), while capturing the Italian Super Cup trophy three times (2017, 2018, 2020) and becoming the Super Cup MVP in 2018.

Micov is third all-time in games played for the club in the EuroLeague, and second in points scored, assists, and three-pointers, the team notes.

Panathinaikos will most likely play with a new head coach in charge. With Dejan Radonjic expected to be fired, Christos Serelis was named as the interim head coach.
