Thomas Walkup’s injury was referred to George Bartzokas after the victory of Olympiakos over Aris for the 12th game of the Stoiximan Basket League.
The coach of the “red and white” expressed his hope to have at his disposal the 31-year-old guard, who left early in the game with the “yellows”.
In detail, what he said:
“To wish everyone a Happy New Year with good health. We are pleased that so many people came at midday to show support for us. It was a tough game for us, we came back yesterday afternoon, we played in less than 40 hours. Several players were rested, we also lost Walkup early and I hope it’s not serious and he plays on Tuesday. We won Aris with untested fives.
Every team has potential, Aris was very patient, he made difficult shots. And in Thessaloniki we won hard, Aris plays and Europe gets images from difficult matches and has a very good coach”.
On the games during the holidays: “I don’t enjoy it personally, the coaches want training, we had pressure games. But I enjoy the atmosphere, basketball is fun and the fact that we are playing these days is important but for us it is difficult.”
