Ghana Forward Ben Bentil is in line to compete for Olimpia Milano later tonight as the Italian side takes on AS Monaco in the Euroleague Basketball competition.
The Round 14 matchup in the 2021-2022 Regular Season of the continental tournament marks Bentil’s return to the league after featuring in the FIBA Europe Cup earlier this season during his brief run at Bahcesehir Koleji Istanbul.
Bentil has experience competing in the Euroleague during his two year run with Panathinaikos and after signing with Milano a week ago, the 26 year old is likely to feature in tonight’s game against the French side.
In his first game since signing for Milano, Bentil registered 10 points, seven rebounds and a steal in 16 minutes off the bench in Milano’s 79-53 win over Brinidisi in the Italian Serie A. (Click highlighted text to watch game highlights)
