Bentil with teammates
Bentil in action for Bilbao

After starring off the bench two games into the season, Ghana Forward Ben Bentil is very likely to play in Peristeri GS’ game against Holargos later tonight.

The game is one of seven fixtures to be honored in Week 3 of the 2018-2019 Greek A1 League which has giant Olympiacos leading.

Persiteri heads to the game aiming to extend its two game winning streak after picking up wins over AEK Athens and Kolossos in previous appearances.

Bentil scored 16 and 13 points respectively in those games and is off to a good start to life in Greece after signing for the team just ahead of the season.

The team is third behind Olympiakos and Panathinaikos who share the same two game record with Persiteri; Bentil’s side gained promotion to A1 this season.

Holargos ranks sixth in the 14 team league with a win and a loss in two games but faces one of three teams yet to drop a game this season.

Bentil is the first Ghana born player to play in the NBA.
