A major scandal involving allegations of fixed matches has caused significant friction within Greek professional basketball. The crisis escalated when Panathinaikos BC formally demanded the immediate resignation of all members of the Central Referees Committee (KED) and the Hellenic Basketball Federation (EOK). Panathinaikos officials argued that the continued presence of these officials is unethical, noting that the President of EOK and two members of KED have been arrested. In response to the unrest, several Stoiximan GBL clubs, including Panathinaikos and AEK, reportedly refused to co-sign a draft announcement from the league organizing authority. This led to ESAKE President Michalis Melis to issue a personal statement emphasizing the need to protect the reputation of the league, its investors, and sponsors. Melis expressed confidence in the Greek judicial system to investigate the allegations and stated that ESAKE intends to provide legal support to clarify the situation and protect the league ecosystem.
