TJ Shorts has been a subject of considerable discussion since his move to Panathinaikos last summer. Although often operating in the shadow of star teammate Kendrick Nunn, he continues to be recognized as one of Europe’s most sought-after point guards. This strong reputation has reportedly captured the attention of Maccabi Tel-Aviv, with reports from Alessandro Maggi confirming their serious interest.
Initially, Shorts faced significant criticism for his early performances under coach Ergin Ataman. However, the former Paris player has since found his rhythm and a more consistent stride in Athens. While he has yet to consistently reach the dominant level he showcased during his time with Paris, the Macedonian international is currently averaging 7.9 points and 3.1 assists per game in the Euroleague this season.
