According to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, the NBA has postponed the game which was slated to take place at 3 AM CET after midnight. The new date for the match-up is not known as of yet.

The Serbian coach suffered a severe health concern today and was immediately rushed to a hospital. Fortunately, his condition is currently stable.

Milojevic, who is 46 years old, had previous coaching experiences in the ABA League. He was the head coach of Mega Basket for 8 years between 2012 and 2020, and he had a brief stint with Buducnost VOLI Podgorica in 2021.

Currently, he is one of the seven assistant coaches of the Golden State Warriors.

The Serbian was also a former basketball player who once made it to the All-Europe Second Team and became ABA League MVP three times with the Partizan Mozzart Bet Belgrade jersey.

He was also part of the Yugoslav squad under Svetislav Pesic in the 2001 EuroBasket, where Yugoslavia won over Turkiye in the final game to claim the trophy.
