Mateusz Ponitka, 29, after one season with the Greens, is now a free agent. PAO thanked the Polish guard/forward for his contribution to the team, via a post on social media.

Ponitka had been one of Panathinaikos' most consistent players, averaging 8.4 points, 5.2 rebounds and 2.4 assists in the EuroLeague. In the Greek Basket League regular season, he had 9.2 points, 3.7 rebounds and 2.9 assists.

As of July 5, Marius Grigonis and Matt Thomas are the only non-Greek players left on the squad. However, and despite Grigonis having a contract for next years as well, they're both likely to depart.
