Panathinaikos’ next moves after Sluka-Ti applies to Mirotic and Papagiannis

THE Panathinaikos made the checkmate move by acquiring it Kostas Sloukas and has already greatly raised the quality level in his roster, however there are still several pending moves to complete the roster. The “greens” will still do 4-5 major additions to give Ergin Ataman the right tools to lead the team back to the top.

The “greens” are expected to announce his acquisition in the next few hours Jerian Grant, with which the agreement has been reached a few days ago. Sluka’s transfer doesn’t affect that of the American guard, who is meant to have a complementary role in the guards, but Ergin Ataman highly values ​​his potential and believes he can show a much better face than his first time in the EuroLeague, with the Armani Milano jersey.

From then on, Panathinaikos has given special weight to the next, probably last, addition to the guards. It will be about player with scoring ability and long shot, who will also be a consistent defender. The options in Europe are very limited, this one Tyler Dorsey it seems that he was lost for good (since Fenerbahce could not get Kostas Slukas as well) and so it is most likely that the chosen one will be found by the NBA. Although nothing should be ruled out, as was demonstrated by the Sluka case.

From then on, Panathinaikos is looking reinforcement in the forward positions. THE Mario Hezonia he is the big target of the “trefoil”, but the contract he has in force with Real is not easy to break. The player himself has undertaken the effort to find an edge, but the possibility of the “greens” going to Madrid with a proposal for the Croatian should not be ruled out. Even if they can’t get him this year, it’s clear that they want him… in general, and they’ll come back next year, when he’s free.

THE Ioannis Papapetrou he waits on his handset to boost the ‘3’ and ‘4’ positions as well, like Super Mario. An offer has yet to be made to the 28-year-old ace, but it seems a return is more likely than not. It should be noted that Nikola Mirotic issue does not exist for Panathinaikosat least at the moment.

The “greens” are also looking for a center, with Giorgos Papagiannis losing points as the days go by and he doesn’t say “yes”. It seems that the 25-year-old center is expecting something from the USA, while Fenerbahce always remains at bay. Although Ataman has suggested the Greek center stay, Panathinaikos will not wait for him forever, especially now that with the latest additions of Greeks there is no need to fill the position with another native.

Panathinaikos currently has as its outsiders Vildosa, Grant and Lessor, while with the departure of Grigonis the prevailing scenario (he has a valid contract), he still has three foreign positions to complete the six. Therefore, the “greens” are not… eager to fill most of the pending positions with Greeks.

As for the other Greeks. Dimitris Agravanis will hardly remain, after the return of Dinos Mitoglou, Panagiotis Kalaitzakis has a chance to remain, while the young Hougaz and Samonturov will probably be loaned out.
