Mark Daigneault, head coach of the Oklahoma City Thunder, spoke about the departure of Serbian power forward Aleksej Pokusevski from the team.
The American coach had something to say about the departure of the Serbian player from this NBA team. He spoke both critically and commendably about him.
“Four years ago, he came here, went through our program. He was obviously very young, inexperienced, physically, never played here. I don’t think he ever understood his game as a professional player. Although I believe he has progressed, we haven’t found a consistent role for him this season,” Mark Daigneault began.
However, he supported the young Serbian player:
“But, he’s another guy we root for, believe in, and appreciate his commitment to our program during his time here, and I want him to know that too.”
