Bogdan Bogdanovic was visibly upset after his team’s victory, and the reason for such a state is more than clear.
Dejan Milojevic left this world too soon. A heart attack prevented him from achieving his goals, and the entire basketball world was deprived of a brilliant coach. After the significant victory of his Atlanta Hawks, Bogdan Bogdanovic spoke about the former coach of Mega and Buducnost.
“None of us could believe that what happened was true. He was a beast. Dejan was always smiling and positive. Everyone remembers him as someone to whom others came to complain about something, but he never complained to us about anything. No matter what happened, he would always tell you to just smile. Looking at the impact he had on the careers of many basketball players worldwide, it’s incredible…
I will never forget that he never chased a career. He was a great player, but he never chased a career. He always wanted to be with his family in beautiful, family-friendly places and cities. He never chased after money. He was a great example of how we should all behave and live. He always said that if you don’t love your life, you won’t be able to do your job the right way. People sometimes value their jobs and other things more than life. A very sad day.”
