With Nikola Milutinov and Moustapha Fall, Olympiacos is on the market and Moses Wright (25, 2,06) is expected to join the Greek team.

Per Eurohoops sources, the deal is not finalized yet, however, Wright’s contract includes a buy-out clause for the EuroLeague making the transfer relatively easy.

What’s important however is that compared to other players offered to the Greek club, Wright can immediately help Olympiacos as he proved after signing in Turkey in December, replacing Daniel Oturu who moved to Anadolu Efes.

In five BSL games, Wright averages 26.4 points, 8.4 rebounds, 1.4 steals, 1.4 blocks, and 1.2 steals.

With Fall expected to be back after two weeks and Milutinov out at least one month, Wright will help Olympiacos immediately in the upcoming EuroLeague games from next week.

After not getting drafted by an NBA team in 2021, Wright signed a 10-day contract with the Clippers and a two-way contract with Dallas, however last season he played in China for the Zhejiang Golden Bulls and he started this season also in China with the Shanxi Loongs.
