Career
At club level
Papantoniou made his debut in what was then A1 Ethniki , the top division for club basketball in Greece, at the age of 17 at GS Marousi . For this he ran in the following season 2008/09 in the ULEB Eurocup , before switching to AEK Athens in summer 2009 . He left this again after one season and played for the 2010/11 season with city rivals Ilisiakos Athens . At the Ilisiakos, the then 20-year-old was part of the permanent rotation of the squad and was used in 25 of a possible 26 games. Nevertheless, he switched to the GS Peristeri after just one season . There he played 23 games, but was awarded significantly more playing time than in his previous stations. Papantoniou honored this with 137 points. He topped this in the 2012/13 season when he was by far the most successful thrower of the Peristeri. In 26 games used, the guard came to 298 points and 111 rebounds. This yield alone, but not enough to save Peristeri from relegation. In order to continue playing first class, Papantoniou left the GS Peristeri and signed for two seasons with VAP Kolossos . There he ran on the side of Christoforos Stefanidis and came to 221 points in 26 games. Despite the current contract, Papantoniou moved to the re-promoted AEK Athens for the 2014/15 season . At the game association, however, he found himself in the role of a backup player and was awarded less playing time than he had enjoyed on Rhodes and at the Peristeri. Nevertheless, in the summer of 2015 he extended his expiring contract for another two years and played again internationally with the AEK from the 2015/16 season .
For the 2016/17 season Papantoniou then moved to the Spanish second division and joined the Araberri Basket Club . At the beginning of December 2016 he had his contract terminated and on December 11, 2016 he moved to the Catalan basketball club Actel Força Lleida, where he had signed a contract until the end of the current second division season. In mid-January 2017, Promitheas brought Patras Papantoniou back into the Basket League. In the summer of 2017 he signed a one-year contract with GS Larisas Faros . The Guard moved to PAOK Saloniki for the 2018/19 season .
