Olympiacos is strengthening its domestic roster ahead of the upcoming 2026/27 season, having reached an agreement to sign Nikos Plotas. The 22-year-old guard, who previously stood out with Promitheas, is essentially already part of the "red and whites," with only the official confirmation still pending.
Olympiacos' management successfully negotiated terms with both the player's representatives and his former club. The official announcement is expected shortly, giving head coach Georgios Bartzokas a promising Greek talent to work with.
Plotas arrives in Piraeus with an impressive résumé, having been named Best Young Player in the Greek Basket League last season. During his breakout campaign, the young point guard played 23 games for the Patras-based club, averaging 5.5 points, 1.8 rebounds, 1.2 assists, and 0.9 steals in 18 minutes per game.
