A veteran of the team, Giannoulis Larentzakis, has apparently developed a special relationship with the American big man which he revealed in remarks to SPORT24.

"He's been what we've been missing. He's got athleticism, and can offer something different to Moustapha Fall and Nikola Milutinov," explained the Greek guard about why the center has so far been a good addition to the team.

"He's a great kid. I've got him close so he can get into the team as quickly as possible," Larentzakis also said, hinting at the fact that he took Wright, aged 25, under his wings.

When asked what he taught the newcomer, Larentzakis gave a playful answer.

"I can't tell you these things. They are secrets," the Greek guard said with a laugh. "I think he is showing them on the floor little by little."

In just three games, Moses Wright has averaged 9 points, 3.7 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 2 steals, and 2 blocks for a total of 13.3 PIR per game.
