The legacy of former Portland Trail Blazers and New Jersey Nets guard Drazen Petrovic, a native of former Yugoslavia who pioneered a path to the NBA, continues to shine. Luka Doncic and Dzanan Musa, hailing from the same region as Petrovic, will enter the NBA this season. As Ben Golliver of SI.com relays, the former superstar provides inspiration for both rookies.
The report comes in the context of a new NBA Digital Players Only Film, Something in the Water, which follows the two young draftees and recalls their predecessors.
