Ioannis "Gaga" Gagaloudis (alternate spellings: Yannis, Giannis, Gagaloudes, Gkagkaloudis) (Greek: Γιάννης Γκαγκαλούδης; born August 22, 1978) is a Greek professional basketball player. He is 1.92 m (6 ft 3¾ in) tall and 86 kg (190 lbs.) in weight. Born in Athens, Greece, he can play at both the point guard and shooting guard positions.
Born in Athens in 1978, Gagaloudis started his career with Paleo Faliro. In 1999, he moved to the Greek top-tier level GBL team Dafni, where he stayed for two seasons. Gagaloudis won the 2003 FIBA EuroCup Challenge with Aris, and a Greek Basket League championship with Panathinaikos, in 2004.
With PAOK, Gagaloudis averaged 12.9 points, 1.6 rebounds, 3.2 assists, and 1.8 steals per game, in the 2nd-tier level European-wide league, the EuroCup, during the 2004–05 season. After 2 years with PAOK, and following contract offers from Italian and Spanish teams, Gagaloudis signed with Greek club AEK Athens, in October 2006. In August 2007, Gagaloudis was the first signing of the Greek club Rethymno, for the club's first season in the Greek Basket League.
In January 2008, he signed with the Italian team Virtus Roma, but he was released a month later, after appearing in only three Italian League games, in which he averaged 4.0 points per game. He also played in 2 EuroLeague games with Roma that season. In February 2012, he left Maroussi, due to the club's financial problems. For financial reasons, Gagaloudis then signed with the Cypriot League team Apollon Limassol.
