Olympiacos Piraeus officially announced that the 33-year-old is joining the organization on a two-year deal.

Konstantinos Melayes from Gazzetta.gr reports that the second year in the deal is an option.

NBA Hall of Famer Jack Sikma's son, Luke Sikma spent the last six years with ALBA Berlin, becoming the captain and one of the symbols of the team. During last season in the EuroLeague, he averaged 7.6 points, 5.3 rebounds, 4.9 assists, and 1 steal for 12.9 PIR.

His numbers were similar in the German League where he averaged 8.7 points per contest, along with 4.6 rebounds and 4.2 assists for 13.1 PIR.

Sikma becomes the third newcomer of Olympiacos this offseason. Previously, the red-and-whites signed deals with Nigel Williams-Goss and Nikola Milutinov, who have both played in Piraeus before.
