ATHENS, Greece (AP)—Forward Marcus Haislip(notes) has been acquired by reigning Greek and European champion Panathinaikos one day after he was waived by the San Antonio Spurs.

A team executive announced the acquisition to the fans at halftime of Panathinaikos’ league match against Kolossos Rhodes on Saturday.

The 6-foot-10 Haislip played sparingly in four NBA seasons with three teams since being drafted 13th in 2002, averaging 3.5 points in 89 regular-season games. The former Tennessee star also played two seasons in Turkey and two in Spain.

Panathinaikos (12-1) leads the Greek League along with archrival Olympiakos and has reached the Final 16 in the Euroleague, but has been hit with injuries in its frontcourt.
