PIRAEUS, Greece -- Olympiakos basketball coach David Blatt revealed on Monday that he had been diagnosed with primary progressive multiple sclerosis .

"Sometimes life throws things at you that really have no explanation or rhyme or reason. Those are moments that upon recognising you have to make choices that test your true character," the 60-year-old Israeli American said in a letter to the team."The first thing I did was to go back to my basketball coaching methodology of solving and overcoming difficulties," he said.

The former coach of Israel and Russia national teams said he will ask his players and staff at Olympiakos "to be the best version of themselves, I must ask and even demand from myself to do the same." The club will play in the A2 second division in the Greek Basketball League after being demoted last season for failing to show up for playoff contests against rival Panathinaikos.
