Vasilije Micic: 'I'm stil showing a desire to go the NBA'

Micic, 28, recently joined the lineup of the 2022 Aegean Ball Festival in Syros and talked to Eurohoops about his intentions, confirming that he remains Efes-bound in case no deal with an NBA team arises. “It’s nothing mystic or secret here. It’s about reality. I’m still showing a desire to go to the NBA,” Micic told Eurohoops. “I would like to try myself there, I would like to go there to see how is everything over there. Some things are not in my hands. I have some days left to make it happen, day by day. We will see. Otherwise, I will stay in Efes, but for now, it’s to go there”.

Since Vasilije Micic is in the news, I talked about my favorite European player for the last decade with his running mate Shane Larkin a couple of years ago.

Vasilije Micic said he’s ready to play in the NBA next year more than any other time. But ti’s not gonna happen at Thunder. He’s looking for a trade to play in a Playoff-caliber team, there’s no progress at all though. Anadolu Efes option is still on the table for him. #ThunderUp – 10:38 PM BasketNews @BasketNews_com
