His first NBA experience wasn’t successful, but the 23-year-old Serbian is not giving up. “I didn’t give up on the NBA dream because it didn’t go well this year. I’m young, there’s time for everything. I might come back in 2-3 years. If I want to return to the NBA, I can go anywhere and not just to the Sixers, where it was my only choice,” Filip Petrusev said. -via EuroHoops.net / November 28, 2023
