panathinaikos-ivanovicPanathinaikos announced the dismissal of Dusko Ivanovic, the basketball team’s coach through an official statement. The team’s poor performance against Olympiakos which Panathinaikos lost its advantage, as well as the team’s exclusion from the Euroleague Final 4 lead to the decision to dismiss Ivanovic.
Sotiris Manolopoulos, a former coaching staff member will take over as a temporary coach, until the club can find a replacement.
