Punter: "I’m excited"!

Kevin Punter is exhilarated and anxious to get busy as well as getting to know Vassilis Spanoulis and Giorgos Printezis!

“I feel good about sigining!”, the American guard said to OlympiacosBC.gr moments after our team’s announcement on their two year deal. “I feel great that I’ll be playing for Olympiacos! I began my career with Lavrio, so to be coming back to Greece to play for such a great team as Olympiacos is truly fantastic!”.

The new signing of the ‘reds’ made a special mention of two players that have intertwined their names with the history and the success of the team. “Spanoulis and Printezis have been with the team for many years. They were obviously with the team when I was till a rookie. They are veterans. They are great players and have won many and important titles in their careers. I know their game, the way they play and I can’t wait to get to know them on a personal level. I know them as players and I’m anxious to start working with them”.

The 26 year old player – who has won the Basketball Champions League back to back (2017-18 and 2018-19 with AEK and Virtus respectively) and was the MVP of the competition’s Final Four this passed season – will be making his debut with the Euroleague. “It’s the first season I will be playing for the Euroleague and I’m excited. I’m ready to work hard and I’m not thinking anything else beyond that. I’ll be focused on only one goal: Doing the best I can for my team”.
