Before the game against Crvena zvezda in Belgrade, Kevin Punter commented on the departure of Zeljko Obradovic from Partizan, whose former captain he was.
Reporters asked Barcelona player Kevin Punter what he thought about Zeljko Obradovic leaving Partizan, and he said:
“What can I really say? I agree with the people here who said that this is all part of sports. People come and go from clubs, regardless of their size—it’s simply part of the job we do. It’s our professional destiny. Someone here described it in those words, and I can confirm that it’s a beautiful way to put it.” he said for 1xBet.
Kevin Punter spent three seasons at Partizan under Zeljko Obradovic, and in his second season he became the team captain. He was a player that the Serbian coach trusted greatly.
In his best season with the Belgrade club—when he nearly led the team to the EuroLeague Final Four—he averaged 15.5 points with excellent shooting percentages.
Zeljko Obradovic’s departure from Partizan shook the entire basketball community, and he is currently being replaced on the bench by Mirko Ocokoljic, who was one of the assistants to the legendary coach.
