Olympiacos has signed Matt Howard for the 11-12 season.

Howard helped lead Butler to two consecutive NCAA National Championship Games.

"It is a big decision for me but coming to a team with such great tradition as Olympiacos was easy. Players like Josh Childress and Rasho Nesterovic were here, so I know this one of the best teams in Europe and always has high goals," Howard said. "When you go to the next level, you have to prove you belong. I come to Olympiacos to help and learn from my teammates and our legendary coach."
