Following the fifth game, which saw Olympiacos clinch the championship title, cameras captured the events unfolding in the post-game interview area.
It was there that Nan and the former Partizan center found themselves. The footage shows Jones approaching the Panathinaikos guard, accompanied by former black-and-white player Frank Ntilikina. A verbal altercation quickly ensued, after which Nan pushed his rival.
The situation did not de-escalate there. Jones again moved towards the American guard, attempting to punch him, but failed to connect. Nan then retaliated, striking the Olympiacos player.
The incident has garnered significant attention in Greece, and according to local reports, both clubs are preparing legal action following the events that transpired after the decisive final series game.
It remains to be seen what the outcome of the clash between the two basketball players will be and if additional sanctions will follow.
