The 44-year-old coached Denver Nuggets big man Nikola Jokic in Serbia for a couple years before the 2020-21 NBA MVP came over to the United States.
"Like Jokic, Milojevic was once a Serbian center, a rugged, undersized big man whose deft skills and tenacity on the glass earned him the nickname 'The Serbian [Charles] Barkley,' " ESPN's Jackie MacMullan wrote in September 2020. "He was a sturdy player who lifted weights in his kitchen. He was not averse to mixing it up on the court should a physical presence be required.
"Milojevic was known for his exceptional footwork, a skill that he passed along to Jokic. 'I showed him some things and after a week, he had already passed me in ability.' "
Milojevic this season was the head coach of a team based in Podgorica, Montenegro.
