More Than a Game
This is My Life
Basketball has shaped every part of my journey — from a small-town gym to coaching across continents. Today, I’m not just a coach, but a mentor and leader focused on helping the next generation grow.

Coaching is more than drawing plays, it’s about building people.

I’ve been in your shoes, and on your side of the court.
Players I Have Trained
Every player I train is part of my journey, and my motivation.
How I Fell in Love With the Game
I still remember the sound of the ball echoing through the gym the first time I picked it up. I was just a kid in Bor, full of energy and curiosity — but something about basketball clicked instantly. The rhythm, the competition, the teamwork… it all felt natural.
What started as a hobby quickly became a calling. I wasn’t the tallest or strongest at first, but I kept showing up. I watched, learned, trained harder than anyone. That early love for the game is what still drives me today — and it’s the same fire I try to spark in every player I coach.
Playing Career
I started my journey in Bor, Serbia — a place where the love for basketball runs deep. As a teenager, I joined the youth system of Crvena zvezda, where I had the honor of winning the Euroleague Junior Tournament — an experience that fueled my belief in hard work and teamwork.
From there, my professional playing career took me across the world. I played in Slovenia, North Macedonia, Armenia, Spain (for Gran Canaria), and China, and later continued in Brunei, where I competed in the ASEAN region. Each club, each country, and each culture taught me something new — not just about the game, but about discipline, resilience, and what it truly means to lead by example.
Coaching Career
After retiring as a player, I knew I wasn’t done with basketball — I just needed a new role. I joined Top Flight Bangkok as a coach and Director of Basketball Operations, working alongside former NBA player Ike Nwankwo. Not long after, I became the head coach of Pegasus Brunei, a professional team competing in the ASEAN Super League (ASL) — an experience that sharpened my leadership and deepened my international perspective.
Since then, I’ve led international camps, youth programs, and helped develop players across Asia and Europe.
My mission as a coach is clear: help players grow not just as athletes, but as people. I focus on fundamentals, mentality, and building trust — the kind of trust that takes a player further than they thought possible.
