During last week’s November doubleheader, Peters first had 13 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists in a road win against Maccabi, then followed up with a career-high 28 points, along with 4 rebounds and 3 assists in a win over Red Star.

In these four games, Peters he was almost unstoppable, showing great accuracy from all points and sparking the “red and white” attack time and time again.

His forward Olympiakou made 18 two-point shots on 26 attempts (69.2%) over that four-game span, including 7/8 against Fenerbahce. He’s also hit the target on 11-of-22 three-point shots (50.0%) so far in November.
