The transfer of Justin Alston to PAOK took flesh and blood to cover the absence of the injured Jamani McNees.

PAOK’s player is officially Justin Alston (1994, 2min 04), who will fill the gap of the injured Jamani McNeese.

KAE PAOK’s announcement in detail:

“KAE PAOK mateco announces the agreement with the American basketball player Justin Alston, who is already in Thessaloniki to immediately integrate into our team.

Justin Alexander Alston was born on July 2, 1994, is 2.04 meters tall and plays as a center.

In the 2021-22 season he played in Hungary and scored 11.8 points, 6.4 rebounds and 54% on 2-pointers with Naturtex, while he played in Lithuania last season. Played in 35 games with Juventus Utena, averaging 12.6 points, 5.7 rebounds and 60.3% on 2-point shots. In three of these games he faced Rytas Vilnius and his current teammate Elvar Fridriksson.

At the beginning of that season he signed with Ramat Gan, but did not take part in an official match and withdrew due to the war. He returned to the United States but made the transatlantic journey again when he agreed to a deal with Hapoel Holon. The postponement of the Holon Games, which were scheduled to take place in Turkey, was essentially the reason why this collaboration was not officially launched. And from Cyprus, where he has been in recent days, the American center is now in Thessaloniki, preparing to wear the PAOK jersey number 32.

In the past, Fraser of Prometheus asked to leave for personal reasons

A blow for Prometheus, because before two weeks had passed since the agreement with Tim Fraser, he had to terminate the contract of the American, who wanted to leave due to a family problem.

Tim Frazier’s second stint in the Stoiximan Basket League was short-lived after Prometheus announced the termination of his contract just 12 days after his acquisition.

As Patrini revealed, the American asked to leave for personal reasons, with Prometheus respecting his wishes.

Frazier managed to play in just one game with the Patriots – in the 68-71 loss to Dijon in the Basketball Champions League, where he had 8 points and 4 assists – with the only positive for Prometheus being no foreigner Stoiximan Basket League was substituted in the Basketball Champions League because he had not included him in his Greek squad.

The announcement in detail:

“KAE Prometheus Patras announces the amicable solution to its collaboration with Tim Frazier, respecting the exceptional family problem that has arisen for the American athlete. We thank him for his offer and wish him all the best for his career.”
