It seems that Bayern Munich's head-coach Svetislav Pešić, GM Marko Pešić and assistant-coach Oliver Kostić were forced to go to extensive effort to personally convince 6'10" Bosnian Serb PF Dejan Kovačević (late '96) to pick Germany over Serbia and have recently granted him with his first ever appearance in German League. For his part, Oliver Kostić, who is also in charge of Bayern's B squad where he works with Kovačević on a daily basis, has also been awarded with a quick integration into German Basketball Federation youth program.
Let's hope that the Basketball Federation of Serbia and head-coach Aleksandar Bućan will have the audacity to call up IPFW's 6'5" swingman John Konchar ('96) and St.Joseph's 6'10" bigman Nick Rakočević (late '97) to the Serbia U20 peliminary roster. To me, a low risk and potentially high reward move.
