The best Bulgarian basketball player Aleksandar Vezenkov is the top scorer of the regular season in the Greek championship for the second time in his career. The Olympiacos player finished the first stage of the championship with 382 points scored, being one of the few who managed to finish in first place with two different teams.

Exactly ten years ago – for the 2014/2015 season, the Bulgarian also topped the ranking with the Aris team.

Vezenkov is the ninth player in the history of the Greek league to win the top scorer award more than once, with the leader being legendary player Nikos Galis.
