Villeurbanne interested in Pat Calathes

Many teams will be interested this summer.


He is the not so well known brother of Euroleague champion Nick Calathes but this summer he will become well known too. We're talking about Pat Calathes (2.09-SF/PF) who has been playing for the last 3 seasons in Greece using his dual nationality and thus not occupying the slot of a foreign player. Calathes finally had his breakout season after 2 sour seasons in Maroussi where he struggled to get playing time in the overflowing SF position.

In Kolossos he was the go to man and the MVP of the team leading them safely past the relegation zone and into the play-offs once more. He averaged 14.3 points 8.1 rebounds 1.9 assists and 1.3 steals in 28 games in the A1 league. Now eurobasket.com says that Villeurbanne are interested in signing the talented Greek-American forward and next year he might be a France resident.
