Petridis: “Lesor is a dynamite – There is no question of Lloyd at Panathinaikos”

His transcripts Panathinaikou commented on the air of News Bulletin 247 o George Petridis.

First, he commented on his acquisition Matias Lessor and what it means for the “greens”: “Panathinaikos convinced Lesor despite Barcelona’s involvement. A very important addition, he was definitely among the top centers in the Euroleague and entered the best five of the competition. He’s spectacular, he gets the crowd going, he’s a very good rebounder. The word that characterizes him is “dynamite”, very strong and athletic. It will have several highlights of the year. After Batiste and Gist, Panathinaikos did not have such a strong center”.

As for the next moves, he said: “There is no Lloyd issue, anyway the buy-out does not concern Euroleague teams. There are other cases being considered for the guards. There may be a twist in the matter of Darius Thompson, who was close to an Italian team. Any team that wants to take him, must give a buy-out of 500 thousand to Baskonia”.

Finally, on whether there is a case of overturning with Pantherpointed out: “There was a report in Spain that his transfer to Barcelona has not yet been completed, but I think the matter is formal and there will be no reversal. They are disappointed in Panathinaikos with the change of attitude of the player and his agent”.
