- Dorsey is currently serving a one-month suspension following a social media dispute.

Despite a recent injury to teammate Yiannis Montro and an ongoing suspension, reports from Greece suggest that American-Israeli basketball player Tyler Dorsey is unlikely to continue with European champions Olympiacos. Dorsey is currently serving a one-month ban, set to end on November 15, stemming from a public dispute on social media.
According to Greek reporter Harris Stavrou, the chances of Dorsey returning to the team's roster after his suspension are extremely low. Stavrou stated, "I consider him a player who has already finished his journey with the team. I don't see any way he will wear the Olympiacos uniform again." The team is reportedly facing a two-player deficit due to Montro's injury, with everyone understanding the situation.
The controversy began when Dorsey responded to a podcast comment suggesting his skills were replaceable. Dorsey questioned why he wouldn't be released immediately if he was so easily substituted, especially if the team wished to avoid paying him. He also alluded to unfair treatment and a decrease in his playing time, promising that the "truth will be told" about his experience.
Dorsey had a strong previous season, averaging 15.9 points and shooting 38.6% from three-point range. He started the current 2026-27 season with 25 points against Baskonia but played only 5 minutes for 2 points in his last game against Valencia. His season averages are currently 12.6 points with 40.7% three-point shooting in 18:26 minutes per game.
