Unexpected and in some ways sensational, the divorce from coach Piero Bucchi is maturing. After the defeats in the two matches that could have turned the season around (in Cholet for the Champions League and in Treviso for the championship) the Sassari club accelerated the reflections that had already begun at the end of December, when president Stefano Sardara said he was dissatisfied with the results and « ready to intervene."
This evening coach Bucchi was not present at the PalaSerradimigni for training, which was directed by deputies Bulleri and Oldoini. All the players were present.
The company had extended Bucchi's contract until 2025 just a few months after his arrival (November 2021) in place of Demis Cavina. The coach from Bologna has reached the Scudetto semi-finals twice. This season, however, the team is struggling to grow, but injuries and disappointing signings (point guard Whittaker and winger McKinnie) have created problems that cannot be solved only with the arrival of the new point guard Jefferson.
