Professional career
Teramo Basket (2009–2012)
After progressing through the youth ranks of Banca Tercas Teramo, Polonara debuted in the first division, the Serie A, in the first game of 2009-10 though he rarely featured that season and played sparingly the next.
He played more regularly during the 2011-12 season with 8.2 points and 4.5 rebounds in 15.6 minutes on average, some coming from a stellar performance against Fabi Shoes Montegranaro in April with 34 points (13/14 from the field) and 9 rebounds for a valuation of 46. This helped the youngster win the Best Player Under 22 award for the season. He was also selected (as a replacement) for the Serie A All Star Game.
Cimberio Varese (2012–2014)
