## Pacers Forward Thomas Bryant Headed to EuroLeague Giant Panathinaikos

**Veteran Center Seeks New Challenge After Eight NBA Seasons**

Thomas Bryant, known for his crucial contributions during the Indiana Pacers' recent playoff run, is reportedly set to embark on a new chapter in his basketball career. Sportando reports that Bryant is close to signing with Greek powerhouse Panathinaikos, leaving the NBA after eight seasons and stints with five different teams. 

Bryant enjoyed a solid campaign with the Pacers this past season, averaging 6.9 points and 3.9 rebounds across 56 games.  The 27-year-old native of Rochester, New York previously honed his skills at the collegiate level with the Indiana Hoosiers.


**Panathinaikos' Pursuit of a Dominant Center**

This move comes as Panathinaikos actively sought to bolster their frontcourt. Their pursuit of Jonas Valanciunas fell through earlier in the offseason, prompting them to turn their attention to Bryant.  The EuroLeague club is considered the second-best basketball league globally, trailing only the NBA.


**Bryant's High-Energy Game Projected for Success in Greece**

Panathinaikos hopes Bryant's dynamic style of play will thrive in their system. His ability to score both inside and outside the paint makes him a versatile asset that could significantly impact their campaign.  While this move marks a departure from the NBA, it doesn't necessarily signify Bryant's final chapter in North American basketball. At 27 years old, he retains the potential to return to the league in a year or two.
