The renewal of coach Giorgos Bartzokas was only the beginning of the planning for Olympiacos for the next season. Re-signing guard Dorsey could be the next big step in the off-season for Olympiacos.

Dorsey, who has a Greek passport, had a lot of trust from Bartzokas last season as he started in all 75 games.

In the EuroLeague this past season Dorsey finished with 12.8 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 2 assists per game, while in the Greek league he averaged 10.8 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 1.8 assists per game.

26-year-old Dorsey last season made EuroLeague's final four with Olympiacos, won the Greek league as well as Greek Cup, where he was named the MVP.

Before playing for Olympiacos last season, he also spent 2 years with Maccabi Playtika Tel-Aviv, after deciding to leave the NBA, where he played for the Memphis Grizzlies and the Atlanta Hawks.
