Turkish Airlines EuroLeague All-Decade forward Georgios Printezis and Olympiacos Piraeus, the team he became a fan of as a boy, will spend their 17th season together after signing a new one-year deal, the club announced Thursday. Printezis (2.05 meters, 36 years old) averaged 8.5 points on 61.2% two-point shooting in 31 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague games last season. Before that, he has been a double-digit scorer in the EuroLeague for 10 consecutive seasons with Olympiacos, which he rejoined in 2011 after two years abroad with Unicaja Malaga of Spain. Printezis grew up up in the Olympiacos system and made his EuroLeague debut at age 17 in the opening round of the 2002-03 season. His role grew until Printezis became a nearly full-time starter in 2008-09 as Olympiacos reached its first Final Four of the new century.
