Nigel Hayes-Davis to Panathinaikos: Arrival in Athens Today

Nigel Hayes-Davis is expected to arrive in Athens on Sunday (February 15th) to join Panathinaikos, as announced by the team. The player's arrival has generated excitement among fans.

The American forward, who was named MVP of the 2025 Final Four, made the leap to the NBA with the Phoenix Suns before returning to Europe for Panathinaikos.

Details about the exact arrival time have not been disclosed, as Panathinaikos wishes to avoid a reception from journalists and fans due to the team's increased obligations.

Hayes-Davis will participate in Panathinaikos training sessions starting Monday, undergo medical examinations, and may travel with the team to Crete for the cup.

Last season, Hayes-Davis averaged 16.7 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 1.7 assists, contributing to Fenerbahce's EuroLeague title. He scored 50 points in a game against Alba Berlin, breaking the EuroLeague record.
