Milutinov to Miss Olympiacos EuroLeague Clash Against Maccabi Tel Aviv

Olympiacos center Nikola Milutinov is set to miss the upcoming EuroLeague and Greek League fixtures, including the match against Maccabi Tel Aviv. The Serbian big man suffered a fracture in the distal phalanx of his right index finger, ruling him out of the Round 12 EuroLeague clash in Cyprus.

This injury deals another blow to the 2.13-meter center, who has endured a challenging start to the 2026/27 campaign. Physical ailments have limited him to just seven appearances, four of them as a starter, averaging 3.4 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist, and 0.1 steals per game.

Despite his slow start, Milutinov brings vast experience with 303 career EuroLeague appearances, 238 of them with the Piraeus club. Last spring, he lifted the EuroLeague trophy for the first time in his career alongside his teammates.

Head coach Georgios Bartzokas will have to navigate both competitions without him. In the EuroLeague, Olympiacos sits level at the top of the standings with an 8-3 record, sharing the summit with Valencia, Panathinaikos, and Barcelona.

In domestic action, Olympiacos remains undefeated on the court with six wins from six games, though a club penalty places them behind PAOK and Aris. Aside from Milutinov, Jean Montero remains sidelined with an injury, while Tyler Dorsey could soon return to action following the expiration of his suspension.
