The Spanish national team will miss their Euro 2022 hero. But Ettore Messina gains a key advantage

Lorenzo Brown, recently announced as the new point guard for Olimpia Milano, has withdrawn from EuroBasket 2025 due to “personal reasons,” as reported by AS and confirmed by realolimpiamilano.com. The decision comes as a surprise, given Brown’s pivotal role in Spain’s 2022 gold medal run and his inclusion in Sergio Scariolo’s preliminary squad.

However, the news is a positive one for Milan: Brown will join the team from day one of training camp, giving Ettore Messina a much-needed head start with his new floor general, especially as many other players will be away on national team duty.
