Nearly two months after longtime secretary general Patrick Baumann's death on Oct. 13 in Buenos Aires, FIBA has appointed his successor.
At a FIBA Central Board meeting on Dec. 7 in Mies, Switzerland, Andreas Zagklis was unanimously approved as the next secretary general.
The 38-year Greek joined FIBA as its director legal services and general counsel in 2016. Before that, he was an external legal adviser for basketball's global governing body.
