Nikola Milutinov showcased an outstanding display during the Acropolis Cup in Athens against Greece. He took on the role of the center for the Serbian National Team in place of NBA champion and two-time MVP, Nikola Jokic, who was not present.
“I’ve had this opportunity before in my career as a starting center, so I have some experience,” Milutinov said. “I’m used to it, and I will try to do my job to the best of my abilities. Of course, I would be happier if Jokic were here, but it is what it is. I will try to fill that gap, although it’s almost impossible.”
