Dragic: “I spoke with Partizan, I couldn’t lie and play with … a foot”

Apocalyptic appeared the Goran Dragic saying that he spoke with Partizan shortly before announcing that he was withdrawing from active action.

In his presence in Podcast ‘NBA Out of Bounds’ The Slovenian veteran ace now pointed out that “I talked to Partizan, but I couldn’t lie to fans and coaches and come to play with a foot.”

Subsequently, NBAER for many years said: ‘They contacted me, but I was honest. I couldn’t play at this level because of the problem I had on the knee while my kids were in Miami”

However, he did not hide his love for Partizan: ‘I didn’t even think about this direction, but if I were healthy I would like to play in Partizan. It’s my team and I always supported it, it would be nice to play for them. I had in my mind to continue playing basketball, I would like to play for another 20 years, but it didn’t. I had a knee problem and my doctor told me that if I wanted to keep running with my kids I would have to stop basketball. I didn’t finish my career on my own terms, I was forced to do so, that was difficult. I had to stop. I wanted to get back to Europe, play 1-2 season, but it didn’t happen“
