Walkup dismisses passport controversy, eyes EuroLeague title

Olympiacos player Thomas Walkup has addressed a reported request to revoke his passport, calling the situation "silly and irrelevant." He expressed strong pride in his Greek citizenship, stating, "this country is my home," and affirmed his commitment to representing Greece and its national team.

Walkup emphasized his dedication to the sport, noting that while he gives his all, victory in every game is not guaranteed. The team is currently focused on their final regular-season EuroLeague game, aiming to secure the first-place seed with a win or a specific outcome in another match.

Looking ahead, Walkup believes Olympiacos possesses the necessary capabilities to compete for and win the EuroLeague title this season. He also praised teammate Donta Hall for a spectacular buzzer-beating dunk, attributing it to Hall's athleticism.
