Fournier's veiled reply to Nunn's remarks

Olympiacos star Evan Fournier made a veiled post on his X account in response to remarks by Panathinaikos's Kendrick Nunn.

Greek basketball is rocked by a major referee scandal. Six people, including Vangelis Liolios of the Hellenic Basketball Federation and EuroLeague referee Vasiliki Tsaroucha, were arrested on charges of match fixing and bribery. Searches at the suspects' homes turned up large sums of money.

As part of the allegations, around 50 games played between 2016 and 2026 are under review. These matches are reportedly being examined over match fixing claims.

Nunn, for his part, commented under an Instagram post on the matter, writing 'give me my trophies back, with respect.'

Fournier's post came after this comment. The French player wrote: 'It is not failure that defines a person, but how they deal with failure. Either accept failure like a man, or blame others like a coward. The choice is yours.' Fournier did not mention Nunn by name in his post.
