George Papas
George Papas (Greek: Τζωρτζ Πάπας; born March 15, 1998) is a Greek American professional basketball player for Maroussi of the Greek Basketball League. Standing at 1.96 m (6 ft 5 in) tall, he plays at the shooting guard position.
Papas was born in Jersey City, New Jersey, to Alexis Maloney and Greek-born Stefanos Papathanasiou. He has a brother 2+1⁄2 years his elder named Tommy, who played for Mykonos in the Greek B Basket League and for William & Mary on college level.
He reached the 1,000-point plateau for the Hawks in February against Marist. He also competed in the Dos Equis 3X3U 3-on-3 competition at the 2022 Final Four, the first Hawk ever selected to the event. He is also known for his antics on November 15, 2019, when Papas took the ball from Kansas point guard while time expired, to dunk the ball at the end of the game. The incident is widely regarded as classless and disrespectful, due to the “unwritten” rules of basketball.
On August 14, 2022, he signed a two-year deal, his first professional contract, with Olympiacos of the Greek Basket League and the EuroLeague.
In October 2022, he celebrated the first title of his professional career, which was the Greek Super Cup, in the Final 4 of Rhodes.
On October 10, 2022, he made his debut in the Greek Basket League, in the away match against Apollon Patras. He contributed 6 points, one rebound and one assist in 10 minutes of action in his team's 61–87 victory.
On December 12, 2022, Papas made his EuroLeague debut in the home game win against Fenerbahçe, playing 2:51 minutes and scoring 2 points.
In February 2023, he won another title with Olympiakos, that of the Greek Cup in the Final 8 of Crete.
