According to Eurohoops reporter Aris Barkas, former NBA player Frank Ntilikina will join the Greek league giant Olympiacos. Barkas also said that there are only some details left between Olympiacos and the Serbian powerhouse Belgrade guerrillas that Nelikina currently plays for, and the two sides are about to reach an agreement.

Nelligina was born in July 1998 and is 27 years old, 193cm tall and weighs 91kg. She is the player selected by the New York Knicks in the 8th pick in the first round in the 2017 NBA Draft. In the NBA, in addition to the Knicks, Neilkina also played in the Dallas Mavericks and the Charlotte Hornets. He made a total of 321 appearances in the NBA regular season, averaging 17 minutes per game, averaging 4.8 points, 1.8 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 0.7 steals and 0.2 blocks, and 1 turnover and 1.9 fouls. He shot 36.9%, three-point shooting percentage and 32% from the free throw percentage and 76.2%. Neilkina has a very high draft pick, and he is considered to have excellent physical talent and athleticism, and his future is bright. As a result, Neilkina's development in the NBA is very disappointing. He has been through many NBA teams, but his performance has never been satisfactory. Because the improvement cannot meet expectations, he also had to leave the NBA field early.

In the Adriatic League last season, Neilkina played 29 games for the Belgrade Guerrillas, averaging 18.3 minutes per game, averaging 7.1 points, 1.4 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.2 blocks, and 1 turnover and 2.5 fouls. He shot 43.5%, three-point shooting percentage 38.3%, and free throw shooting percentage 87.3%. In the Champions League last season, Nelikina made a total of 21 appearances, averaging 19.9 minutes, averaging 7 points, 1.7 rebounds, 2 assists and 0.6 steals, 0.7 turnovers and 2.6 fouls, shooting percentage of 45.8%, three-point shooting percentage of 37.7%, and free throw shooting percentage of 92.3%. Last season, Neilkina's overall performance was only considered sloppy. He can indeed play a certain role on the defensive end, but his performance on the offensive end is indeed relatively average. In this case, it is difficult for him to get more playing time and performance opportunities.

Currently, Olympiacos has two former NBA players, Evan Founier and Saben Lee. They are actually both strong offense and weak defense in terms of characteristics. On the other hand, Keenan Evans, another backcourt player of the team, suffered an injury before, which is an important factor in their desire to sign Nelikina. I don't know if this deal will eventually take shape. If Nelikina changes his club, can he perform better in the NBA field in the new season?
