After three days in which he did not appear on the parquet – the last match played was against Dolomiti Energia Trentino on 7 April -, Nikola Mirotic returned in great form, causing panic in the Cremonese defence, showing all the ease with which he knows how to play the game of basketball. The streak of seven consecutive victories recorded by Olimpia Milano has seen the number 33 finish as the protagonist several times; this time, however, he not only recorded his best game of the season, but he did it as a luxury sixth man, impeccably managing energy and finishing at the basket.

The third quarter sees him take the team on his shoulders to complete the comeback mission: after more than 2′ of fasting, Milan scores thanks to a triple from the Montenegrin who subsequently scores a basket in support and another bomb before leaving the field ; they have 8 points in the balance and perfect parity between the two teams with just over 5′ left in the half hour of play. The shot from behind the arc at the beginning of the fourth period bears the signature of 1991 and is worth overtaking at 54-56, then Mirotic himself suffers a foul and converts both shots from the line, pushing him to full possession of advantage; the last two points of his match still arrive with the clock stopped and are the ones that will propitiate – after the time-out called by coach Demis Cavina – the triple of Nicolò Melli’s victory.
