A Greek media report suggests that three major EuroLeague clubs are in advanced negotiations for a historic, unprecedented three-team player trade. The proposed deal would send guard Tyler Dorsey from Olympiacos to Milan. Dorsey's future with Olympiacos has been uncertain since his return from a suspension.
