THE Philip Petrushev has started his second term very strongly in the Red Star and rightfully so, it is the subject of discussion before every game.
Especially when it comes to facing a former team of his, with the Serb getting ready to play against Effectsin which he competed for one season (2021-22).
THE Petrushevhowever, he failed to have an active role in the Turkish club, as it was his first experience in Euroleague. In fact, the one who pressured the team to acquire him is their current coach Efes and Ergin Ataman’s assistant at the time, Tomislav Mijatovicwho deified him before the confrontation between them.
He spoke about the fact that the Serbian center was… immature when he went to Turkey, but emphasized that he is now a complete player who deserves to be in the NBA.
What he said in detail:
“I was instrumental in bringing Philip to Ephesus. I started following him when he played at Gonzaga (college in America).
Maybe he came to the team a year earlier than he should have. He couldn’t find the time he needed to level up on a deep roster. This is not very easy for a young player. If he had matured a little more before he came, he could have charted a completely different course in Ephesus.
Philip’s game has it all. He is a complete, modern basketball player. I think Petrusev is an NBA player».
