Papaloukas is a tall playmaker with outstanding leadership and passing skills who led CSKA to the 2006 and 2008 Euroleague titles and then won the 2007 Euroleague MVP. Papaloukas also helped Greece capture gold at EuroBasket 2005 and the silver medal at the 2006 World Championships. And with CSKA, he won six consecutive Russian League titles.

WHAT THEY SAY... Theo Papaloukas: "I think it's a very big honor. If you see the other 49 names it is unbelievable. I grew up watching many of the other players and beingincluded in this list is really like a gift for me."
