A small gym of 400 seats will be the basketball center of Greece on Saturday. Nea Kifisia hosts Filathlitikos of NBA prospect Giannis Adetokunbo in a second division game. The winner will get promoted to the first division and 8 NBA teams have already send their representatives in order to scout the 18 years old player.

And to add a little more intrigue to the game, the Pistons will be present and also Zeljko Obradovic with his longtime assistant Dimitris Itoudis will be in the stands. As you may have heard it is rumored in Europe that the legendary Serbian coach may be the new head coach of Detroit, so this is an interesting subplot.

The other seven teams which will be scouting Adetokunbo live on the gym are San Antonio, Atlanta, Miami, Memphis, Utah, Cleveland and Denver.
