Olympiacos Piraeus and Tyler Dorsey are together again after the sides penned a three deal on Sunday.
Dorsey (1.96 meters, 28 years old) arrives from Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul, where he spent the last season and a half. In the first of those campaigns, his Fener team lost to Olympiacos in the EuroLeague Playoffs and last season they both reached the EuroLeague Final Four and squared off in the third-place game.
Dorsey averaged 8.7 points on 45.4% three-point shooting and 1.2 assists over 38 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague games last year. He also helped Fenerbahce win the Turkish League and Cup double.
A member of the Greek national team due to his mother’s family, Dorsey grew up in the United States and played college basketball at the University of Oregon. He was drafted with the 41st overall pick in the 2017 NBA Draft and began his professional career in the NBA with the Atlanta Hawks and also played for the club’s G League affiliate, the Erie BayHawks. Dorsey also played for the Memphis Grizzlies in the NBA and the Memphis Hustle in the G League.
His first time playing for a club in Europe came when he joined Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv, where he played the 2019-20 and 2020-21 seasons. Dorsey helped Maccabi win a pair of Israeli League crowns in that time. He moved to Olympiacos the following season and helped the Reds to the Greek League and Cup double. Dorsey returned to the NBA with the Dallas Mavericks in 2022. After a stint there and with Dallas’s G League affiliate, the Texas Legends, Dorsey signed with Fenerbahce.
Dorsey enters his sixth EuroLeague season ranked 51st on the competition’s all-time charts with 265 three-pointers made.
