Creek spent most of his career with the Adelaide 36ers and the South East Melbourne Phoenix of the Australian NBL. Creek was named to the All-NBL First Team in 2023 after helping guide the Phoenix to the Play-In Tournament. He has also had stints in the NBA with the Brooklyn Nets and Minnesota Timberwolves, in China with Xinjiang Flying Tigers.

He brings experience at the highest levels, having played for the Australian national team at the 2019 Basketball World Cup. Creek is expected to provide leadership, scoring punch and toughness as the Romanian champs aim to make a deep run in BKT EuroCup.

[Aris Thessaloniki](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/eurocup/teams/aris-thessaloniki/roster/ari/) retained a key piece of its backcourt by re-signing veteran guard [Lefteris Bochoridis](https://www.euroleaguebasketball.net/en/eurocup/players/eleftherios-bochoridis/003240/) on a two-year deal, the club announced Saturday.

Those numbers rose to 6.7 points and 4.9 boards in the Greek League and even higher to 9.6 points and 5.4 rebounds in the Greek playoffs.
