Milano continues to prioritize re-signing Zach LeDay, but if Josh Nebo departs, the Italian club could target a more physical forward

Olimpia Milano is continuing to work on the roster for the 2026/27 season and is closely evaluating Jaylen Hoard, according to  Alessandro Maggi of RealOlimpiaMilano.

The 26-year-old French forward is under contract with Maccabi Tel Aviv until 2028 but has an exit clause at the end of this season.

Milano continues to prioritize re-signing Zach LeDay, but if Josh Nebo departs, the Italian club could target a more physical forward to pair with Devin Booker at center, alongside another stretch-five option.

Hoard is emerging as a strong candidate for that role, and Milano could make a move this summer. The club’s strategy is expected to be clearer by mid-April.

If LeDay were to leave, another option could be Alec Peters of Olympiacos, who has also recently drawn interest from Real Madrid.

This season, Hoard is averaging 12 points and 7 rebounds in 28 minutes per game in the EuroLeague, shooting 53% from the field, 33% from three, and 85% from the free-throw line.
