The Serbian coach discussed the Turkish club’s ambitions and identified consistency as the key to reaching the EuroLeague

Sasha Djordjevic explained to Eurohoops why he chose Bahcesehir. “I want a chance to fight for titles. I wanted a club with ambition, hunger and the necessary knowledge.”

Malachi Flynn’s presence was also a major factor. “He made my decision easier. I love his game and personality. He is a franchise player, and now he must search for greatness through finals, titles and big shots.”

Regarding Bahcesehir’s EuroLeague ambitions, Djordjevic emphasized consistency. “We must earn the right to move up through great results, going step by step instead of constantly looking at the top of the mountain.”
