Marius Grigonis agrees on terms with Panathinaikos

Panathinaikos announced the signing of Lithuanian swingman Marius Grigonis (198 cm). Last season Grigonis played in Russia for CSKA Moscow, where he averaged 8.5 ppg in 16 Euroleague games.

This will be Grigonis’s fifth EuroLeague season. He spent his first four with Zalgiris Kaunas, where he kept growing as a player until exploding in 2020-21 with averages of 13.4 points in 34 games. He also earned October MVP honors in 2021. He then moved to Russia to join CSKA. Grigonis grew up in Zalgiris but moved to Spain in 2013, looking to expand his opportunities as a pro. He had a season in Huesca, two in Manresa, and a last one in Tenerife before getting the attention of legendary coach Aito Garcia Reneses, who took him to ALBA Berlin. Grigonis made his EuroLeague debut with ALBA in 2017-18, and the following season he would move to Zalgiris.
