Thank you for making this highlight, Olympic. This legend left us way too fast and I wasn't even born yet when he passed away. RIP

Like a Randy Rhoades in rock or Heath Ledger in cinema. You was a fast end shine star. RIP legend !!

One of the greatest? Not even close to justice. It’s a shame to 99% of the globe does not realize that he paved the way for international players to join the NBA, like the Dirks and Pejas of our time. This dude was averaging 40+ in Real Madrid and other clubs like Cibona. This dude had a 112 point game in 40 mins. It’s on the web, search it up. Only European fans will truly ever appreciate his talent. Had he not died so you would see records in the NBA today set by him. Miss you Drazen.

Gone too soon. He was a beast of a player, and likely would have been a regular NBA all-star. He feared no one.
