"Information was leaked before. Do you remember which names were mentioned? That is impossible," the nine-time EuroLeague champion pointed out.

"The fact that Partizan have possibilities... We know from whom these stories come and why they come. Let's not pretend that we don't know that. It's Christmas time, let them continue telling fairy tales," Obradovic added and then referred to journalists in the press room:

"The pen is in your hands, not in mine."

The latest Partizan rumours involved eight-season NBA veteran Jabari Parker. However, his agent Nuno Pedroso denied the Telegraf.rs report that Partizan are in advanced talks with former Bucks, Bulls, Wizards, Hawks, Kings, and Celtics forward.

"Jabari is currently looking for a team overseas. He had offers from two NBA teams and was close to signing, but in the end, there was no agreement reached,"Pedroso told Mozzart Sport.

"Now, we are looking at other options, primarily overseas. As for Partizan, nothing is close," the agent clarified. "We just informed the club that he is on the market and that he is a free agent. The stories that negotiations are underway are not true."
