Olympiacos is now officially Tyson Ward, with the “reds” announcing his acquisition!
The 27 -year -old made his first statements as a member of Piraeus, talking about the impressive Paris season, and then described as a big challenge for him to wear the Olympic jersey.
In detail what he said:
Congrats for the whole season. How do you consider everything you and the team did? “It was a huge feat. First year in the Euroleague, first domestic championship in the club’s history, first cup. Many successes, but also many ups and downs and difficulties. We definitely enjoyed every moment and gave everything this year. This has led to this moment now ».
What made you choose Olympiacos as your next step? “I think it was the right step for me. I come to a club with a long history and I wanted to take the next step in the Euroleague. It’s a great challenge and I think I’m ready for her ».
As you start this new chapter with Olympiacos, what are your goals for the season and what are your personal ambitions? “The goal is clear: I want to help the team win the championship. This is always the goal. On a personal level, I want to bring joy to the team, give energy to the fans and raise them. As I said, I want to contribute as much as I can to get to the top ».
You will work under the guidance of George Bardzokas. What is your impression of him? “His heritage speaks on its own. I only have good words to say. As I learn more about Euroleague and its coaches, I also learned about him. I know he has won a lot and has a great past. I can learn a lot next to him and look forward to getting to know him and work with him. “.
What can Olympiacos fans expect from you? Would you like to send them a message? “To wait for a lot of passion, a lot of love, a lot of energy. And I can tell them that I am a man who returns what he receives. Whenever I enter the court, they will have 100% of me and I hope they give me 100% of them. I’m Tyson Ward and I’ll be your new Energizer Bunny ».
