'''Giorgos Amerikanos''' was a [[Greece|Greek]] basketball player of the late [[1950s]] - [[1960s]].

Amerikanos started his career at the YMCA Nikaia and transferred to [[AEK BC|AEK]] where, as their captain, he led the team to glory including the [[1964]], [[1965]], [[1966]] and [[1968]] Championships, a trip to the final four of the European Cup of Champions in [[1966]] at Bologna Italy and the European Cup-Winners Cup on [[April 4]], [[1968]]. In that particular final at the [[Kallimarmaro]], Amerikanos scored 29 points in AEK's 89-82 victory over Slavia Prague before 80,000 fans.

The low point of Amerikanos' career came after an international match when he threw his shirt in disgust at his performance. Newspapers of that period described him as "unpatriotic" and even "anthellenic", charges Amerikanos vehemently denied.

Giorgos Amerikanos had a total of 67 caps scoring 1,055 points with the [[National Basketball Team]] of Greece.
