Olympiacos explores signing Killian Hayes following injury to Montero

Olympiacos is reportedly exploring the recruitment of French-American guard Killian Hayes to address the roster gap left by the injury of Montero, who is expected to be sidelined for approximately six months. The Piraeus-based club is looking to intervene as negotiations between the player and Maccabi Tel Aviv have allegedly stalled due to emerging differences in terms, despite recent reports suggesting a deal was nearing completion.

Killian Hayes, currently affiliated with the Sacramento Kings, faces an uncertain future in the NBA. His career includes four seasons with the Detroit Pistons (2020-2024), stints with the Brooklyn Nets, and recent experience in the G League with the Cleveland Charge, where he averaged 22.4 points and 8.4 assists over 19 games. Across 239 career NBA appearances, he has maintained averages of 7.9 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 5 assists. While reports from Sportdog and Tomer Givati confirm Olympiacos' interest, the player's agent has previously denied rumors regarding an imminent move to Maccabi. The club is now actively monitoring the situation to determine if a viable transfer can be secured.
