Asked about the transfer scenarios, Priftis stressed that "there is nothing we can say. The team continues as it is and we are heading to the next games with the roster that we have.
When conditions allow it and the situation calls for it, we will do what we need to do for the team's ".
The Greek coach also admitted that Panathinaikos are still on the market, on the lookout for players.
"That's definitely true," Priftis confirmed before making a special reference to a player whose name has been associated numerous times with the Greek side, Stefan Jovic.
"Jovic is not yet ready to play contact basketball. So, we will have to take everything into account," Dimitris Priftis said.
