Euroleague, Evan Fournier new ace of ambitious Olympiacos

After 12 years in the NBA, he goes to the club he has long aimed for

Fresh off the silver medal he won at the Olympics with the French national team, Fournier has made his choice. After 12 years in the NBA (wearing five different jerseys), the French ace has decided to accept Olympiacos's offer. There is talk of a two-year deal worth four million euros total.

Fournier published on his own social profiles a post in which he explained how "That day è today" referring to an old post in which he explained his desire to play, one day, just with the Olympiacos jersey.

The No. 20 overall pick in the 2012 Draft, Fournier has decided to end his long NBA adventure after a full 12 years. During his career in the United States, he played with the Magic (his best period in terms of on-court performance), Nuggets, Celtics, Knicks and Pistons jerseys. In total, he maintained, in the NBA, an average of 13.6 points per game.

The Greek club is serious: with the arrival of Fournier, it aims to win the Euroleague. The payroll è rose to nearly 20 million euros (according to Sport24), an increase of about 7.5 million from last season. Vezenkov è the most "expensive", with as much as 3.7 million in salary per season.
