After the match, the Greek guard/forward talked about the victory over her Karditsahis own appearance, what he asks of him Ergin Ataman but also the renewed OAKA.

In detail what he said:

For the victory over Karditsa: “It is a very strong championship this year, Karditsa has very good players. All the teams are strengthened and we want the competition. We also have the Euroleague, it is not easy to manage fatigue, travel and matches. But we are professionals and that’s what we get paid for. I hope the coach gives us a day off tomorrow, because we deserve it. Today we played without three players, but we got the win. Karditsa fought and will have a good season.”

For his own performance: “I don’t want to talk about myself, I feel very good, I’m doing everything I can to help the team. I know what the coach asks of me and that’s what I try to do whether I start, whether I come off the bench, whether I play 2 minutes or not. I always have a smile on my face to help my teammates. We have Bayern, the trip to Thessaloniki and then a double week. I hope we show up ready.”

For the renewed OAKA: “We are looking forward to going to OAKA. Most of us haven’t seen it up close and we haven’t been there yet although we are every day in the auxiliary. I personally will see it on Thursday and it will be a very nice experience in a new stadium, sold out once again. We will give our best and we will get the victory.”
