Sasha Obradovic Chooses Hapoel Jerusalem, Aims for EuroLeague Success
Sasha Obradovic, the newly appointed head coach of Hapoel Jerusalem basketball team, recently explained his decision to join the club during the EuroLeague coaches' conference in Athens. Obradovic described the project as ambitious and expressed excitement about working with the club's driven management. He emphasized that the goal is not merely to compete in the EuroCup but to reach the EuroLeague, which he has always aspired to do.
Obradovic noted that he is not building the team from scratch, as Hapoel Jerusalem already has a solid foundation, but his objective is to elevate the team to the next level, similar to his previous coaching stints with Monaco and Alba Berlin. The 57-year-old coach was previously at Crvena Zvezda (Red Star Belgrade), where he started the season strongly but the team eventually declined, finishing tenth and being eliminated in the play-in round, leading to his departure.
Hapoel Jerusalem is preparing for Obradovic's arrival as they look to leverage his experience and ambition to advance their standing in European basketball.
