Nik Kalates novi igrač Partizana Mozzart Bet

Partizan Mozzart Bet je i zvanično predstavio novo pojačanje - legendarnog grčkog plejmejkera Nika Kalatesa, jednog od najiskusnijih i najtrofejnijih aktivnih igrača evropske košarke.

Iskusni organizator igre, star 36 godina, dolazi u redove aktuelnog šampiona AdmiralBet ABA lige nakon sezone provedene u AS Monaku. Pre toga je Kalates nastupao za Fenerbahče, Barselonu, Panatinaikos i Lokomotivu Kubanj, a tokom bogate karijere ostavio je dubok trag u svakom od tih timova.

Kalates je takođe proveo dve sezone u NBA ligi, nastupajući za Memfis Grizlise, gde je stekao dragoceno iskustvo na najvećoj svetskoj košarkaškoj sceni, pre nego što se vratio u Evropu i nastavio da niže uspehe.

Poznat kao jedan od najboljih plejmejkera i asistenata u savremenoj evropskoj košarci, Kalates u Partizan donosi liderstvo, viziju i pobednički mentalitet. Tokom karijere osvojio je brojne trofeje, uključujući Evroligu 2011. godine i Evrokup 2013. godine. Šest puta je bio šampion Grčke, a osvajao je i titule prvaka Turske i Španije, potvrđujući da je lider koji donosi uspeh gde god da igra.

Kao dugogodišnji član reprezentacije Grčke, Kalates je nastupao na brojnim velikim takmičenjima, stekavši status jednog od najboljih plejmejkera koje je ta zemlja ikada imala.

Dolaskom Nika Kalatesa, Partizan Mozzart Bet ne dobija samo iskustvo, već i dokazanog pobednika i pravog lidera na terenu - pojačanje koje će značajno podići ambicije crno-belih u domaćim i evropskim takmičenjima u sezoni 2025/26.
