Officially, Panathinaikos and Euroleague were led to a final “divorce”, with the “Greens” announcing that at the end of this season they will leave the tournament.
The owner of Panathinaikos basketball club, Dimitris Giannakopoulos plans to attend his team’s Euroleague match against arch-rivals Olympiakos Piraeus at OAKA in Athens on Wednesday, defying a ban imposed on him by the Euroleague disciplinary board.
In an unprecedented move, the owner of Panathinaikos basketball club, Dimitris Giannakopoulos decided to ask the team’s fans about whether the club should continue taking part in the Euroleague after Europe’s top basketball league rejected an appeal made by Pana’s owner for the suspension of a penalty imposed on him.
