THE Kenneth Farid he was also delightful in his second game in his shirt Panathinaikoubeing one of the main protagonists of the second double of the greens in the Euroleague at the home of Real Madrid.

What the American center said to Amerikanos24
About how they experienced the “devil’s week: “I think Paris prepared us to play the up-and-down game that we can play, especially with my addition. I like to run, I like to get up and down the field and my teammates see that. And I like the screen too so I can find some free space.
My teammates see me doing this. They see me capable of doing that and they give me the ball in great positions. I’m able to finish for them and I wish I could have finished a little more, some shots or not missed a certain pass at the end, but we’re still learning each other.”
About how he feels playing with a super guard: “Oh, it’s amazing. It’s amazing. It reminds me of when I played in the NBA and had the super guards around me. It reminds me of when I was playing on the USA Basketball youth team and had these superstar guards around me. Because they know how to see you.
They know how to make a pass at you even if you do the little things for them. They will come forward and do great things for you later. I am happy to see this. And I’m happy that their games are starting again, because it was a difficult period for them without a really big player who can block shots and help them a lot on defense.”
For Matias Lessor: “Honestly, he just said, ‘I play my game because of the way you play.’ And with all due respect, that helps me. Because we’re both energetic guys and jives, I guess, are a trait for both of us. But he said to me, ‘Man, I’ve seen you play and I’m going to play so hard and try so hard because of you,’ and I’m like, ‘I respect your game, too, because of who you are.'”
