"4 seasons and still pushing. More Greek than American. There's no place like home," Shaq wrote and added a Greek flag to accompany his photo.

McKissic, 32, signed with Olympiacos on February 10, 2020. After a year, the Reds renewed his contract.

The athletic swingman averages 8.5 points, 1.9 rebounds, 1.7 assists, and 8.2 PIR over four EuroLeague seasons (93 games) with an Olympiacos jersey. This season, his numbers mark 6.8 points, 1.1 boards, 1.4 dimes, and 6.4 PIR in 20 matches.

McKissic won three domestic titles last year, as Olympiacos snatched Greek Cup, Greek League, and Greek Super Cup in 2022.

The Greek powerhouse is now locked in a four-way tie for first EuroLeague place with a 13-7 record.

Before arriving in Piraeus, McKissic played in Italy, South Korea, Turkey, Spain, and Russia. Olympiacos is his eighth club over his 8-year professional career.
