Posted Oct 22, 2026
On Dec. 10, 2021, 15-year-old Neo Avdalas checked in at the end of a game against Alba Berlin for the Panathinaikos senior EuroLeague team. Kendrick Perry launched a pass to the teenager. He took two steps and sprung up with his right hand and jammed the ball into the net. With that slam, Neo became the youngest scorer in EuroLeague history.
