Apollon Patras released Petty and Duncan

Coach Mexas went to Apollon Patras in order to change the status of the team, but the heavy home defeat by Arkadikos was another call to action.
Apollon Patras released Perry Petty after the game and yesterday the team decided to release Darren Duncan.

Panathinaikos - PAOK game postponed due to flu

PAOK team has notified the Hellenic Basketball Clubs Association that the majority of the players and the technical crew suffers from stomach flu, so the association decided to postpone the game of the seventh day of Basket League Greece 2015-2016 between Panathinaikos and PAOK for a future date to be announced.

Diamantakos back to Kifisia cannot move to Apollon

Kifisia had agreed and Diamantakos moved to Apollon Patras but the transfer seems to stuck in transfers' rules. In Basket League Greece one team can give or accept only one player from another league team and Kifisia has already given Mavroeidis to AEK. The deal is stuck although Kifisia does not count on Diamantakos and Apollon is in need of the player.

AEK approaching DJ Cooper releasing Armstead

AEK is approaching DJ Cooper while will probably release Armstead. Armstead was signed by AEK but came with a fracture injury so the team will probably release him and will sign DJ Cooper. The American knows the Greek League since he has played for PAOK and he was named Best Guard of Basket League 2013-2014 and he broke the assists record of the Basket League Greece in his first professional season. DJ Cooper had a great game against AEK in the recent Eurocup game with 27 points, 11 rebounds and 8 assists. Another advantage is that he holds a Bosnian passport too.

Mavroeidis is out with a fractured nose

Bad luck for Mavroeidis who will be out of games due to a fractured nose. The Greek player is in top shape leading the index rating and points in Eurocup and in Basket League! Mavroeidis will definitely miss the forthcoming game against Kifisia and his recovery will tell when he will be back.

Stomach flu knocked out PAOK

Eight players of PAOK (Dedas, Tsochlas, Schortsianitis, Vasileiadis, Tepic, Duvnjak, Markovic and Liapis) and many member of the coaching team suffer from stomach flu. The team made an official request to the Hellenic Basketball Clubs Association to postpone the forthcoming game against Panathinaikos.
