Squad update: Delly expected to return for Round 6

Melbourne United star Matthew Dellavedova will remain on the sidelines for the team’s pair of Round 5 games.

The NBA championship winning guard is progressing well following a concussion sustained in Round 3, having cleared all medical tests, but requires a full week of training before taking to the court.

Dellavedova will aim to make his return in Round 6 against the Perth Wildcats.

Nominated Replacement Player Rob Loe will remain in the squad for Friday night’s clash with the Tasmania JackJumpers.
