Warriors Starter Reveals Favorite Dejan Milojevic Memory

Even though Dejan Milojevic tragically passed away six days ago, it's a moment that'll never feel quite real for the Warriors. As the team gears up to play basketball again, players and coaches are being asked what their favorite memory of him is, and Kevon Looney's is one that'll make you smile.

“His English wasn't always the best so he didn't know how to sugarcoat anything," Looney said to the media. "Anytime I wasn't being aggressive, I wasn't rebounding or boxing out — it’s a cuss word, but he said, 'Don’t be soft.' But he would say the explicit word. I would always tell him, ‘You’re the only person I let talk to me like that.’”

Dejan Milojevic may be gone, but he's always going to be remembered by the players who were under his learning tree. Kevon Looney wants to pass along everything he's learned from Milojoevic and teach it to Trayce Jackson-Davis.

“I had the two best years of my career playing under his coaching," Looney said. "The things he taught me I’m going to continue to carry over and pass on to Trayce.”

The next time the Golden State Warriors play basketball will be an incredibly emotional game. An assistant coach they loved had a tragic moment in front of their eyes. It's not an easy moment to recover from for any human being. This is a team that deserves to be rallied behind as they try to recover.
