The player had made his jump from the EuroLeague to the NBA by signing a deal with the Philadelphia 76ers, by whom he was drafted in 2021 as the 51st overall pick in the 2nd round of the NBA Draft.

His playing time has been very restricted in the NBA, as he played only one game with the 76ers.

He was then traded to the Los Angeles Clippers and then to the Sacramento Kings almost immediately.

On 25 November, Adrian Wojnarowski reported that the Kings were waiving Petrusev, and now the Serbian is bound for the EuroLeague

Petrusev's previous stint in the EuroLeague included two one-year seasons with Anadolu Efes Istanbul in the 2021-22 season and Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet Belgrade in the 2022-23.

In his last season with the Serbian team, Petrusev recorded 8.5 points and 3.8 rebounds per game.
