Obradovic speaks about the basketball scandal

Panathinaikos won 85-79 against Baskonia in the match played at OAKA. At the press conference after the game, head coach Zeljko Obradovic talked about the performance on the court and his players.

When journalists asked him, Obradovic also spoke about the scandal that has shaken Greek basketball. He said the matter is known not only in Greece but across Europe. He added that acquaintances abroad have also been calling him. However, he said he did not know the details of the events and declined to comment.

The head coach acknowledged that there has been a lot of news and commentary on the subject. Still, he argued that it would be more appropriate to talk about the game. For this reason, he did not give further explanation about the scandal.

Obradovic said his players did not start the match well and that the opponent played very well in the first half. He said he found the use of two three-pointers in the final attack positive.

The head coach also answered questions about Kendrick Nunn and Sylvain Francisco. He said Nunn had been away from the court for a long time and was not fully ready.
