Overview
- Promitheas Patras announced on Saturday that Alex Antetokounmpo has agreed to join the club for the 2026–27 season.
- Antetokounmpo is a 24-year-old, 2.03 m forward who made his NBA debut last season with the Milwaukee Bucks, appearing in six games and averaging 3.2 points and 1.0 rebound.
- His career has spanned multiple leagues and countries, including stints with UCAM Murcia (Spain), Raptors 905 and the Wisconsin Herd (G League), M Basket (Lithuania), Podgorica (Montenegro), PAOK and Aris in Greece.
- Promitheas is reshaping its roster under coach Giorgos Vovoras and has added several other signings such as Zac Cuthbertson, New Williams, Haris Paraskevopoulos, Periklis Kouroupakis, Nikos Diplaros and Joirdon Nicholas.
- The move offers Antetokounmpo a clearer path to regular playing time in Greece and gives Promitheas a marketable, athletic frontcourt option whose family name and NBA background raise the club's profile as it aims to reach the Basketball Champions League regular season.
