THE Kenneth Farid was impressive on his debut in his jersey Panathinaikouhelping as much as possible for the greens to take the double at home in Paris.
He arrived on Sunday (9/11/2025) in Greece, did just one training session with Panathinaikos and in his first game with the greens he played 23 minutes and dominated under the baskets. Kenneth Faried really impressed even the most skeptical friend of the shamrock.
The tall American had a double-double with 17 points and 10 rebounds, had 3 blocks and 7 earned fouls, giving it his all on both sides of the floor.

Together with Dino Mitoglou and Kendrick Nunn, they were the main protagonists of Panathinaikos’ victory.
“I’m happy. I don’t care about my personal stats to be honest, it’s not that important, but we got the win and that’s what counts.
Paris play at a high tempo, press you and try to score quickly. In the end we locked in and found a way to stop them, so we escaped with the double.
When I was a team-mate with Faye in Italy I taught him some of my tricks, but at the end of the day it’s hard to be my opponent because – even though I’ve told you what I’m going to do – I manage to do it against you.
We will go to Madrid with confidence high. I believe I can play at that level now. Especially after today’s performance. We will go there with our heads held high,” Kenneth Faried said after the match.
