Nolan Smith throws a towel, Ataman says he could be done

Tensions flared early in Galatasaray’s 69-67 loss to Banvit as Nolan Smith threw a towel when being taken out for the Istanbul club.

The game between Galatasaray and Banvit was barely finding its feet when Nolan Smith did this.

Galatasaray coach Ergin Ataman left no doubt of his views on Smith’s behaviour after the game.

@bie_basketball Nolan was angry to be taken out therefore he threw a towel towards Ataman.

@bie_basketball Ataman said after the game ' Nolan behaves irresponsibly. I think we'll have to find a new player to replace him'

@bie_basketball Nolan will train with junior team of Galatasaray until a decision is made about him.

Smith, formerly of Duke, joined Galatasaray from Cedevita Zagreb in the off-season. It looks like his stay in the TBL may be brief.
