Mike Batiste couldn’t be himself in Fenerhahce/ Ulker and after a disappointing season he is ready to turn the page. That will happen on the courts. Despite being born in 1977 the American forward – who is still loved by Panathinaikos fans – is not thinking at all about retirement according to sources close to him and in a way that seems logical. He is one of the most successful American players in the modern history of Euroleague and this season can’t be the fitting end to his illustrious career.

Batiste is a free agent as he had signed a one year deal with Fenerbahce. He had a bad season, but was used mainly as a power forward and not as a center, the position he used to play in Panathinaikos, despite starting his career as a forward before adjusting himself to the needs of coach Obradovic’s plans.
