Giannakopoulos announced Kendrick Nunn to Panathinaikos

Kendrick Nunn (28 years old, 1.91 meters) should now be considered a Panathinaikos player after Dimitris Giannakopoulos announced via Instagram that the “Greens” have reached an agreement with the NBA guard.

The bomb exploded from Panathinaikos through the mouth of Dimitris Giannakopoulou. One day after Panathinaikos’ victory over Olympiakos in SEF on the 4th matchday of the Stoiximan Basket League, the major shareholder of the “Greens” announced via his official account on Instagram that “Klee” with Kendrick Nan (28 years old, 1.91) agree meter).

Specifically, Dimitris mentions Giannakopoulos in a VIDEO that he uploaded to his stories:

I don’t know if you know naan, the Indian bread. I like a dessert made from this bread and it is Indian pancakes made from this naan. As of today, the athlete Nan is a member of the Panathenaic family..


Kendrick Nunn was born on August 3, 1995. He is 1.91 meters tall and is a combo guard, meaning he plays both guard positions. The American guard went undrafted in the 2018 NBA Draft after graduating from Oakland College, but was able to secure a spot in the NBA through the G-League in the 2019/20 season.

In his NBA career, he wore the jerseys of the Miami Heat (2019-2021), the LA Lakers (2022/23, missed the entire 2021/22 season due to injury) and the Washington Wizards (2022/23), playing a total of 193 games (113 as a starter) averaging 12.1 points, 2.4 rebounds and 2.4 assists on 36.2% 3-point shooting in 24 minutes of play.

This summer, Nan was a free agent and was targeted by Olympiakos and Armani Milano. However, he had decided to wait for a contract in the NBA first. However, failing to find a team, he started looking towards Europe in the last 10 days. In fact – as mentioned in the Game Night show after the “eternal” derby, yesterday (October 30th), Monday, he was in the center of Olympiakos and Panathinaikos, and the “Greens” finally made him theirs.


Nan will be the 8th foreigner from Panathinaikos, whose squad also includes Luka Vildosa, Gerian Grant, Kyle Guy, Marius Grigonis, Juancho Hernangometh, Oleg Balcherovski and Matias Lessor. He is a left-handed combo guard who can shoot well off the dribble, but can also open up the court thanks to his good shot from a stop.

Nunn is a pretty good athlete, a bit undersized for a shooting guard, who is more comfortable as a secondary creator than as a playmaker and solid on-ball defender. At Panathinaikos, it’s a given that he’ll be great thanks to his ability to play with and without the ball in his hands to play, can coexist with most of the “green” defenders in the region.

Jokic may lose his chance to compete for NBA MVP award

Denver Nuggets announced Nikola Jokic He will miss at least four weeks due to left knee hyperextension.

The Serb is expected to miss all 18 matches in January and his maximum appearances this season could be limited to 64 matches. So Jokic will lose the opportunity to compete for the NBA’s main prizes – MVP and inclusion in the All-NBA, as this requires playing at least 65 games in the regular season.

Theoretically, he could return for the January 31 game against the Brooklyn Nets, which would give Nikola the opportunity to play 65 games before the end of the season, but that scenario is unlikely.

Jokic was injured in the last seconds of the first half of the match against Miami Heat (123:147) and did not return to the field after a long break. Before his injury, he managed to score 21 points, 8 assists and 5 rebounds in just 19 minutes.

Jokic averaged 29.9 points, 12.4 rebounds and 11.1 assists per game this season.
