Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet Belgrade forward Filip Petrusev has made it clear, getting back to the NBA is a major goal. After a brief stint in the league, the Serbian big man is focused on earning another opportunity, and his recent play in Europe is making a strong case. In an interview with Zurnal, Petrusev didn’t hide his ambitions. “I would love to return to the NBA, and hopefully as soon as possible,” he said. “It’s always better to go there earlier rather than waiting until the later years of your career. I didn’t have much luck in Philadelphia… Just when I started getting some minutes, the trade happened and everything fell apart.”
