Keenan Evans staying with Zalgiris next season.

Nigel Hayes- Davis extends 2+1 with Fener.

One of the best combo forwards in Europe at the moment, right? How many good players come from Zalgiris....

I mean, we can't really call him a Zalgiris product, can we?

Sulak is pretty reliable. I guess he will replace Kostas Antetokounpo. Not a bad move.

Sadık Kabaca seems to be a done deal for Efes, too. Heard it from another reliable source (Umut Akıncıoğlu) a few weeks ago. He also had said the door for Osmani is also wide open, if Efes is willing to pay. I personally think both of these kids should avoid Efes, but money is sweet I guess.

It's debatable (I know he was good in Galatasaray previously), but my point was that Zalgiris is that first EL stage where guys learn and adjust to EL level. And Jasikevicius this way developed a lot of elite or borderline elite players in his Zalgiris' stretch. For example, Brandon Davies was absolutely lost at first, like literally. But then he became one of the best mobile centers in EL. The same transformation of Th. Walkup. He was SG on the paper, but after a struggle Jasikevicius suggested him an opportunity to play at 1 and he embraced that and learned and became dominant PG. That's why I say that Jasikevicius invented many players.

But even last season there was Josh Nebo.

Oly renew Mackissic contract for 2 more years and Walkup contract for 4 more years. If they expire theirs contacts both of them will be 35 and Walkup is going to be the foreigner with the most years in the team (6 years) and Mackissic the second one (5,5 years). Good job Oly.

Wade Baldwin extends to 2+1 contract with Maccabi. No signing yet, but after Walla reported about it some week ago, Sport5 confirmed it today. JohnDi also rumored to add two more years contract.
Talks with Martin and Coulson are in full steam as well. Hopefully we will have most of the roster extended, with just slight tuning in summer. It.seems that probably only Oly. Maccabi, and two Serbian teams will go without big changes next season.

Vildoza done deal to panathinaikos for 3 years. Rumours also for campazzo,lessort (both seem pretty tough to happen), papapetrou, rogkavopoulos, moraitis,Kostas antetokunbo. And ataman as the coach.

Out for sure Williams,Walters. We have option to renew grigonis,lee,bacon and thomas. Ponitka probably out as well. And papagiannis switched agents last month. He was closer to leaving back in winter,now staying looks more possible

[Levenspiel]

I heard about Ataman, too. Quite a weird development imho, difficult to imagine him in Athens.

[paspalj]

Why are we signing players before a coach? We just can’t seem to learn from past mistakes.

[MikeMaccabiFan]

Bonzi Colson extends his contract until 24/25, with only exit option to NBA next summer (23/24)

I wouldnt keep Grigonis in the team, especially not if I sign Rogkavopoulos. Papapetrou is a joke but you can give him the role he has now with ZOC. Cant say much about Moraitis but he wont be able to have an impact right away. Kostas A. i wouldnt sign either. It only makes sense for me if you lose Papagiannis and you need a Greek big for the A1.

Rokgavopoulos should be your main target indeed. This guy is the most talented player that I have seen since Charalampopoulos. He is without a doubt EL ready. Great rebounder, great spot up shooter who can additionally create a bit for himself and he is also an ok passer. Ataman can use his full potential for sure.

I care mostly about the coach that PAO will sign. If it's going to be Ataman, I wonder how welcome he will feel by the fans..

[saras]

you dont have to wait for an official announcement for a coach to start getting players. maybe the coach has already agreed and the moves are made in agreement with him.
