It’s hard to get used to it, but Diamantidis has already played his last game on Monday and his career came to an end.
Dimitris Diamantidis became a member of Panathinaikos in the summer of 2004, winning three Euroleague titles in 2007, 2009, and 2011. Diamantidis’ numerous accolades in the premier European competition include a Euroleague MVP award, two Euroleague Final Four MVP awards, four All-Euroleague First Team selections, as well as a record six Euroleague Best Defender Awards. Diamantidis was voted to the Euroleague 2001–10 All-Decade Team, and he is the Euroleague all-time leader in assists and steals since the dawn of the Euroleague Basketball Company era in 2000. On April 1, 2016, he was honored with a Euroleague Basketball Legend Award.
As a member of the Greek national team he won the Eurobasket 2005 and beat Team USA in the 2006 Mundobasket semifinal.
- Here’s what happened after his last game and this is his last press conference.
- Of course Diamantidis is synonimous with Euroleague and we have the photos to prove it.
- And here’s what he had to say just before the start of his last Euroleague season.
