Vasilis Spanulis is synonymous with the success of Greek basketball.
He won the Euroleague with Panathinaikos in 2009 and Olympiakos in 2012 and 2013, and is the best scorer in the history of that competition.
A special place in his career is occupied by the gold from the 2005 Eurobasket in Belgrade and the silver at the World Championship in Japan 2006, where he was most deserving of the triumph over the USA (22:101) in the semi-final with 95 points.
The famous Billy is on a new assignment as of today, because he has become the new coach of Peristeri.
He signed a two-year contract, and his former teammate from Olympiakos, Dušan Vukčević, will be his assistant.
Spanulis had his first coaching experience in the junior Euroleague, where he led the Adidas Next Generation team to the finals.
In it, he was defeated 82:61 by Mega, on whose bench as first assistant sat Petar Radonjić, the son of the famous basketball player and coach of Budućnost, and now the head of the profession of Crvena zvezda, Dejan Radonjić.
