DeMarcus Nelson is ready to sign with Panathinaikos as the player and Crvena Zvezda have a deal for his release and the Greek champions are finalizing his new contract details. According to sources close to the negotiations the Greeks are going to cover the Serbs’ debt towards the player, money owned to him from the season which just ended, and that’s how he is now ready to continue his career in Athens.
As we reported earlier Panathinaikos considers him one of the best available options for their back court after missing the chance to sign Nick Calathes who will play next season in Memphis.
