About his presence in Barcelona: “I am a patient person, I need my time to adapt, but every day I feel more and more comfortable on the court. My connection with my teammates is better. I’m happy to help win. I feel like I’ve acclimatized to the city, my girlfriend’s family is here and helping. On the court, the coach and all my teammates make it easier for me. We are more than a team, we are a group of friends who will fight for titles. It was the opportunity I was looking for, to be happy playing basketball.”
For the game against Olympiakos: “Olympiacos is a very difficult team, one of the top in Europe. It will be a challenge, a very difficult match in which we have to play very seriously. These challenges are always welcome, to improve and see our weaknesses.”
For Milutinov: “I am the same age as Milutinov, we played against each other earlier in smaller categories. I always want to face the best centers and show that I am one of them.”
