For his decision Kostas Sloukas to leave him Olympic on his account Panathinaikou spoke o Sasha Vezenkov.
The new player of the Sacramento Kings spoke on his show Eurohoops and stood by the decision of his 33-year-old former teammate, emphasizing among other things: “It was a decision that I won’t say surprised me, surprised me, from then on everyone goes their own way, works for their family, their beliefs»
What Vezenkov mentioned in detail about Sluka’s big decision:
“To say I expected it would be a lie. Kostas (s.s.: Sloukas) is my friend and that is not going to change. We have spent many strong moments together, we have played together, as with other players we started in essence, Kostas came a little later, but the whole rise (of Olympiakos) started with us together. These memories cannot be erased. As with all children. These stay in my mind.
Everyone makes decisions according to their wishes, how they judge their life, for their family. It’s a delicate position, when you go from Panathinaikos to Olympiacos and from Olympiacos to Panathinaikos it’s the same as elsewhere, in Greece it’s a… chicer. There is freedom for each person, to choose his environment, to choose what he wants to continue. Everyone judges and knows what they want to do, I can’t even say 1% of anything.
All I’m saying is let’s not go to extremes. Edges are always a bit ugly. Every person enjoys what they want to do, it is judged in the end if they are successful, based on whether they will win, if they will get a title, if they will do well. I wish health to all players and teams. Always in basketball 99.9% the best wins, so this time too the best will win. It was a decision that I won’t say surprised me, surprised me, from then on everyone goes their own way, works for their family, their beliefs»
