Ioannis Papapetrou decided to stop basketball at the age of 31. With a post on Instagram, the former forward of Panathinaikos, Olympiacos and the National Team informed that he was stopping basketball.
In detail what John Papapetrou said: “Where to start. In life, there are times when – even if you know they are coming – they remain incredibly difficult to deal with.
Two years ago, in October 2023, while traveling to Qatar for knee surgery, a thought went through my mind for the first time: maybe my journey as a basketball player to come to an end. Doctors tried to encourage me, but the signs were already there.
Nearly two years later, today, after much thought and many sincere discussions, and with the support of my family and the people I love and trust, that thought became a decision. With immense gratitude for this journey, the day has come – the day to close this beautiful chapter of my life. “
