Coach Menzies on Dimou: "Emmanouil has succeeded while playing at the highest levels in Europe. I've watched him play with his Greek National Team and his club team, Panathinaikos. He is a dynamic with the ball in his hands and has a proven ability to hit big shots. His passion comes across immediately when talking to him. He does an excellent job challenging himself, on and off the court. That was an important component for us. We want to bring in student-athletes that care about their academics, as well as basketball."
