Codi Miller-McIntyre arrives at Olympiacos as one of the EuroLeague’s most productive playmakers, and on paper, the fit with Georgios Bartzokas’ structured system looks almost seamless.
Codi Miller-McIntyre had been strongly linked with a move to Piraeus for some time, and arrives as a player expected to immediately strengthen Olympiacos’ backcourt rotation on both ends of the floor.
Olympiacos roster changes
Before finalizing new additions, Olympiacos focused on restructuring their roster and clearing space for upcoming signings. As a result, Alec Peters, Giorgos Tanoulis, Moustapha Fall, Frank Ntilikina, Shaquielle McKissic, Kostas Antetokounmpo, and most recently Monte Morris have all left the club.
At this stage, the only remaining uncertainty in Bartzokas’ squad is Cory Joseph, whose future at the club is still undecided.
Olympiacos fans, this one's for you!

Codi Miller-McIntyre – EuroLeague’s assist leader
Above all, Codi Miller-McIntyre confirmed during his second season with Crvena zvezda what many had already believed since his time at Baskonia – that he is one of the best point guards in the EuroLeague.
The American guard with a Bulgarian passport once again finished as the EuroLeague’s assists leader, one of the biggest reasons why Olympiacos appears to be an ideal destination for him.
For years, Georgios Bartzokas has built his offensive philosophy around constant ball movement and unselfish basketball. Olympiacos have consistently ranked among the EuroLeague’s top teams in assists, with their success often depending on how effectively they share the ball and create open looks.
That should not be an issue with Miller-McIntyre, who averaged a league-best 7.5 assists per game last season. His skill set makes him a natural fit for Bartzokas’ system.
Defense
Another hallmark of Olympiacos under Georgios Bartzokas is its defensive identity, an area where former Crvena zvezda guard Codi Miller-McIntyre also excels.
Thanks to his size and physical profile, Miller-McIntyre is capable of defending nearly every position on the floor, from point guards to centers who frequently look for favorable mismatches.
His versatility allows him to take on a wide range of defensive assignments while also covering for teammates when needed, making him an ideal fit in a system built on physicality and aggressive defense.
Career path
Codi Miller-McIntyre’s journey to Olympiacos has been anything but straightforward. Before establishing himself as one of the EuroLeague’s top point guards, he spent years searching for consistency with clubs such as Leuven Bears and Parma, while also making a brief stop in the NBA G League.
His next stop was Zenit, followed by a season at Cedevita Olimpija that had the potential to become the springboard for his career.
Miller-McIntyre then joined Partizan, but his only season in Belgrade coincided with a disappointing campaign for the Serbian club. As a result, he found himself rebuilding his career once again, with spells at Bourg, Andorra, and Gaziantep before finally enjoying the breakthrough season he had been waiting for.
Everything changed at Baskonia. Miller-McIntyre emerged as one of the EuroLeague’s premier playmakers, leading the Spanish side to one of the competition’s biggest surprise campaigns while cementing his reputation as one of the league’s best point guards. His performances earned him a two-year contract with Crvena zvezda.
His start in Belgrade was far from ideal, but he flourished after Sasa Obradovic took over as head coach, once again becoming one of the EuroLeague’s most productive floor generals. Although his season ended with an injury and a dip in form during the closing stretch, it had already become clear that Olympiacos would be the next destination in his career.
