Sometimes we need to be reminded that basketball is just a sport and that there is so much that happens off the court that affects how we digest the game. Earlier in the day, the NBA community was saddened by the sudden news that Golden State Warriors assistant coach, Dejan Milojevic, had passed away after a heart attack.
Toronto Raptors head coach, Darko Rajakovic, was a close friend of Milojevic, one of very few Serbians in the NBA coaching circle, and had some thoughtful words to share before the game.
We are deeply saddened by the loss of Coach Dejan Milojeviu0107.
