Before the matches of the 36th and 37th rounds of the Euroleague, a minute’s silence will be held in memory of the legendary basketball coach Duško Vujošević, it was announced on the official website of the competition.

Partizan basketball players will visit Efes tonight from 19:30 in the match of the 36th round of the Euroleague, while Monaco and Asvel will play at the same time.

– Before today’s matches and the 37th round, a minute’s silence will be held in memory of him and his extraordinary legacy – it is stated on the Euroleague website.

Vujošević died earlier today at the age of 68 after a long battle with a serious illness.

– The Euroleague joins the Serbian and world basketball community in mourning the death of coaching legend Duško Vujošević. Vujošević dedicated most of his famous coaching career, which lasted more than five decades, to Partizan. He first joined the club as an assistant coach in the mid-1980s, before leading Partizan to the Champions Cup Final Four in 1988 as head coach. During four separate terms on the club’s bench, he led the club to numerous successes, including a return to the F4 Euroleague in 2010. Under Vujošević’s leadership, Partizan won 12 titles in the domestic league, the Korać Cup title in 1989 and five championships in the Adriatic League – Euroleague announced.

The Euroleague reminded in a statement that Vujošević received the Alexander Gomelsky award for the best coach of the Euroleague for the 2008/2009 season.
