Trevion Williams' game in Piraeus might have been his last with ALBA Berlin. The 24-year-old center, who was an All-EuroCup First Team selection last season, seems to be headed to Maccabi.
Trevion Williams and Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv are on the verge of a deal, following negotiations between the player's side and his current club, ALBA Berlin, Omri Manheim from Sport 5 reported.

Most of the details have already been finalized and an official announcement is expected soon. The 24-year-old big man will join the Israeli powerhouse on a contract until the end of the season with an option for another year.
Williams might make Oded Kattash's 12-man squad as early as the upcoming Round 18 EuroLeague game against Zalgiris Kaunas. Maccabi (4-13) and ALBA (3-14) are separated by only one win in the EuroLeague standings.
In recent days, Maccabi have been in talks with ALBA regarding compensation for Williams' transfer, and managed to reach an agreement with the German club on the matter.
So far, Williams has recorded averages of 10.8 points (56.0% 2PT, 27.9% 3PT) along with 6.9 rebounds and 3.1 assists in 22 minutes per EuroLeague night, while against Maccabi he provided 10 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists.
Alba recently added another big man to their front line, David McCormack, whose arrival resulted in a certain decline in Williams' minutes and numbers.
In the Round 17 outing against Olympiacos in Piraeus, where ALBA lost 90-85, Williams had 13 points on 5/6 from the field, plus 5 rebounds.
