Pizza Express Apollon has added the Cyprus international swingman and great scorer, Prodromos Nikolaidis (201-F-78, agency: Interperformances) ex Maroussi player in the roster of the Limassol team, according to a number of Greek Press and Media.
The veteran player had double digits in the A1 Greek league for more than a decade, with very steady performances all these years.The Limassol team already got some great shooting material with the entrance of the American (with Austrian passport) Jason Detrick (195-SF-80, agency: Three Eye Sports, college: Oklahoma). The Austrian international guard was among the stand outs in both the victories that the Austrian NT succeeded over the Cyprus NT earlier in the summer of 2012. At the same time the Limassol team set free the Canadian (with Brittish passport) player Kai Williams (190-F-88, college: S.Dakota St.) With these two new additions and having in mind that already the team was quite strong for the Cyprus standards, the Limassol team is focusing to the champion for another one season having in mind that the rest of the teams (with the exception of AEK Larnakas) are not in the same shape and situation as the previous seasons.
Coach Akis Konstantinou is expecting a lot from the two last additions in his team's roster...
Papa Johns Omonia Nicosia agreed financial terms with the Lithuanian center Donatas Visockis an ex player of the team BC Carnieres. While some weeks ago the American 23 years old forward Melvin Baker (200-F-89, agency: SDJ Sports, college: Austin Peay St.) became a member of the Nicosia team officially. Baker is a rookie in the European courts
