Professional career
Born in Athens, Greece, Koronios started playing club basketball with the youth clubs of Peristeri Athens, in 1982. He began his pro career with the senior men's team of Peristeri, in 1986. In 1998, he moved to the Greek club AEK Athens, where he played for two seasons. Then, he continued his career with the Greek clubs PAOK Thessaliniki (2000–01), Maroussi Athens, for two seasons (2001–03), Panionios Athens (2003–04), and finally, with Olympiacos Piraeus (2004–05).

At the time of his retirement, Koronios was the unofficial all-time stats leader of the Greek Basket League, since the 1986–87 season in points scored, with 7,080, in assists, with 1,264, in steals, with 583, in free throws made, with 2,020, and in three pointers made, with 828. In total, Koronios appeared in 448 games in the top-tier level league of Greek basketball. Some of his Greek League career records were eventually broken by Nikos Boudouris, Dimitris Diamantidis, and Vassilis Spanoulis.

With Greece's senior national team, he played at the 1992 FIBA European Olympic Qualifying Tournament, at the 1997 FIBA EuroBasket, at the 1998 FIBA World Championship, and at the 1999 FIBA EuroBasket.
