AEK Betsson is in contact with Agravani

After him Ricky Lindo and soon him Brandon Knightthe AEK Betsson is close to another addition, this time a Greek player. The “yellow and black” are in talks with him Dimitris Agravanis and it is very likely that they will get him.

A basic condition for the transfer to take place is that he has completely overcome him serious injury sustained in October with severe contusion and detachment of adductor. If tests show he will be able to return to action within the next 2-3 weeks, the international power forward/center (2.08m) will sign and be called upon to fill his void Mindaugas Kuzminskas. After all, the Lithuanian, after breaking his metacarpal, is racing to reach the Final 8 of the Cup (February 15-18).

Agravanis started the season in Spain with Breogan, but he only got to play in two matches, because he was injured. Last year he started the season at Peristeri bwin and finished it at Panathinaikos, with whom he averaged 8.2 points, 4.1 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 17.7 minutes. He has also been through Olympiakos, Promethea, Maroussi and Panionio, while he has 49 appearances with the Men’s National Team (with 6.8 points per game), with whom he competed in the 2017 and 2022 Eurobaskets, as well as in the 2016 Pre-Olympic Tournament. In the summer, his participation in the World Cup seemed a foregone conclusion, but he fell out with Dimitris Itoudis and was left out of the team.

It is worth noting that AEK Betsson was also interested in him in the past Harry Yiannopoulos, however, Marousi replied in the negative. The 34-year-old shooting guard/forward is having perhaps the best season of his career this year with 13 points (40.7% on 3-pointers), 4 rebounds and 1 assist in 25:45 on average in the Stoiximan Basket League.

As regards to Ricky Lindois expected until tomorrow in Athens and will logically be available for the match with Olympiakos, while o Brandon Knight he will come as everything seems to be during the weekend and his debut (if everything goes well and medically) will be against Apollon in Patras.
