Nikos Galis
Person
Born
Galis, a New Jersey-born guard drafted by Boston but injured before he could play, moved to Greece and became a national hero. He led Greece to the 1987 EuroBasket title in Athens as MVP and top scorer, the moment that made basketball Greece's second sport, and he drove Aris Thessaloniki through a run of domestic titles. His scoring averages in European competition remain extraordinary.
