Nick Calathes is the PAOK point guard, and no one has made more assists in EuroLeague history. He is 1.98 meters tall. He was born on 7 February 1989. PAOK signed him in June 2026 on a two-year deal.
Greece gave him a passport in 2008. He has played 105 games for the national team and won bronze at EuroBasket 2009. Panathinaikos made him a champion of Europe in 2011. He was twenty-two.
The list of clubs after that is long. Lokomotiv Kuban first, then one season in the NBA. Panathinaikos again for five years, then Barcelona, Fenerbahce and Monaco. Partizan had him last season, and then he came home to Greece.
FAQ About Nick Calathes
What records does Nick Calathes hold in the EuroLeague?
Two, and both are the kind that take a career to build: he is the all-time leader in assists and the all-time leader in steals. He was also named to the All-EuroLeague First Team, and he won the EuroCup MVP award with Lokomotiv Kuban in 2013.
Did Nick Calathes play in the NBA?
One season, with the Memphis Grizzlies in 2013-14. He was named Rookie of the Month in February 2014, averaging just under eleven points and five assists across that stretch, and he never returned to the league afterwards.
Who coaches Calathes at PAOK?
Andrea Trinchieri, who took the club over and built the summer around him. The two-year deal is worth a reported 1.8 million euros, which for a EuroCup-level budget makes Calathes the centerpiece rather than an addition.
