Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens have officially announced the signing of Isaac Bonga. The German forward, born in 1999 and the Defensive Player of EuroBasket 2025, arrives from Partizan Belgrade on a three-year contract worth €6.5 million, tying him to the Greek club until 2029.
Bonga, coming off a starring season with Partizan, had initially targeted a return to the NBA but ultimately chose to stay in Europe under head coach Zeljko Obradovic. The German reunites with the Serbian tactician in familiar surroundings, following a previous spell together.
The move forms part of the sweeping roster overhaul Panathinaikos have engineered to re-establish themselves at the top of the continent, handing Obradovic one of Europe's most complete and versatile forwards.
