News » Giorgos Kyriakidis2025-02-21 Wenyen Gabriel has been pretty busy lately. His tasks with Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens extend far beyond scoring the ball whenever the opportunity presents itself. The South Sudanese big man has a big load to carry, as he has ended up being the Greens' only big man, following the injuries of Mathias Lessort and Omer Yurtseven that have depleted the team's front line.
2025-02-14 All around Europe, it's a time for a little break in the domestic leagues, which the local cups will fill, and the Greek Basketball Cup is no exception. In just a few days, teams will fight for the second domestic title of the season. The tension and the excitement that the domestic cups generate are something that can't usually be found during the regular season of the local leagues.
2025-02-11 This has been a pretty busy season for Derya Yannier. But even if that wasn't the case, the general manager of Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul knows that his professional capacity as the link between the team and the club's management will hardly allow him any moments of ease.
2025-02-09 PJ Dozier made his EuroLeague debut with Partizan Mozzart Bet Belgrade in the 2023-24 season. He averaged 9.2 points, 3.0 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 1.3 steals for a PIR of 9.9 over 33 games. However, the Serbian outfit failed to make the playoffs. For the American guard/forward, the adjustment process was a rather long one and stretched across the entire campaign.
2025-02-06 Luca Banchi's coaching path has been anything but predictable in the 2024-25 season. In early December, he stepped down from Virtus Bologna, a team he had guided to a strong campaign and the EuroLeague Play-in showdown the previous year.
2025-02-05 For a growing number of non-US players, the leap to the NBA isn't just the logical outcome of one or more solid seasons in the EuroLeague. In fact, there's a good reason why some of them would move as far as Australia to maximize their potential of being picked by a franchise.
2025-01-28 For Errick McCollum, changing teams during the season is rather unusual. But the veteran guard was essentially left with no other choice since his former club, Pinar Karsiyaka, was going through major financial struggles that rendered everyone's future uncertain.
2025-01-27 In March 2024, in an interview with the BCL website, Errick McCollum revealed that finishing his career in Turkiye looked like the ideal plan for him. During the summer, Pinar Karsiyaka extended his contract until 2026, and it seemed that all pieces had fallen into place.
2025-01-24 Zalgiris Kaunas had a rough Thursday night in Athens. The Lithuanian squad, up by 20 (51-31) with one minute left in the first half, totally collapsed in the second and decisive part of their EuroLeague Round 23 contest against Panathinaikos AKTOR and suffered their 12th loss of the season (89-76).
2025-01-17 For most ex-NBA players, the transition to Europe is a one and done process. For Duane Washington Jr., things turned out quite differently.
2025-01-15 Until Johannes Voigtmann turned 15, basketball had hardly been a part of his life. He grew up in Eisenach, a town of 42,000 inhabitants in central Germany. As he took up handball as his sport of preference, he didn't even think he was going to hoop for a living. Despite being a late bloomer, once he tried to see how good he would be at it, there was no going back.
2025-01-13 For Alec Peters, watching Sasha Vezenkov at work last Friday night was nothing short of entertaining. "We experienced it almost like the fans. We were kind of having a front-row seat to it. It was special," the American forward told BasketNews a few minutes after Olympiacos Piraeus thrashed Bayern Munich 112-69 on the back of Vezenkov's 45 points.
2025-01-10 "There's no limit or ceiling. We just try to win game after game. We've beaten historic clubs. We're still learning. We're a young and rookie team. Even in the games we win, we need to make a lesson out of the situation."
2025-01-07 "Let's hope Athens doesn't have so much traffic all day long," Wenyen Gabriel remarked with a slight glare as he was leaving the OAKA facilities on Friday night. The South Sudanese big man looked joyful yet visibly tired – maybe as much as after his debut with Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens in Munich, where he stayed on the court for almost 30 minutes, somewhat unexpectedly.
2024-12-27 As 2024 is drawing to a close, Paris Lee can look back and beam with pride about one of the happiest moments of his basketball career. It took place on December 3, for EuroLeague Round 13. With less than two seconds left on the game clock and LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne needing a last-moment hero, Lee received Andre Roberson's inbound pass and took the left lane, leading to Real Madrid's basket.
2024-12-25 Every time Shaquielle McKissic speaks to the media, one can be certain of two things. First, that his words will be filtered to the minimum extent possible and that he will say exactly what he believes or feels. Second, that the boundaries between being serious and joking often become less than clear.
2024-12-19 "Nunn better"; "Nunn and done"; "Second to Nunn"; "One Nunn show." These are some of the puns intended for a player who's making heads turn almost every single time he performs on the court. And last Tuesday was defintely a night to remember for the 29-year-old guard and his team, Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens, who demolished EA7 Emporio Armani Milan 103-74 in a packed OAKA arena.
2024-12-19 Just a few days before the 2024-25 EuroLeague season got underway, Daniel Hackett was asked by NovaSports Greece to name the team he epxected to be the biggest surprise and the biggest disappointment. And while he chose Virtus Segafredo Bologna to repeat last year's run, when it came to choosing the biggest disappointment, Hackett did not back down from possible backlash.
2024-12-17 Fabien Causeur is aware that the current EuroLeague season might very well be his last. At 37 and having signed a 1+1 deal with EA7 Emporio Armani Milan last summer, the Frenchman is having an experience that somewhat resembles a farewell tour.
2024-12-12 When FC Barcelona dropped their EuroLeague opener in Kaunas, Justin Anderson made an interesting point - one would hardly expect from a former or active NBA player. "A lot of people don't know that. It's hard for us to sleep after not winning," Anderson told Barca TV back then. "But adversity is necessary in order to grow. You have to be able to learn in order to be the best."
