The world of European basketball mourns the passing of Petar ‘Pero’ Skansi, a champion both as a player and as a coach.
As a coach he wrote important pages of history in Italy, for example guiding the Benetton Treviso to its first Italian title in 1992.
It is impossible not to remember among his achievements, again in 1992, the Olympic silver medal in Barcelona at the helm of Croatia, stopped only by Michael Jordan’s Dream Team.
In Italy, Skansi has led several teams, including Fortitudo Bologna, Scavolini Pesaro and Reyer Venezia.
The ABA family is deeply saddened to hear that one of the greats of regional basketball Petar Skansi has passed away at the age of 78.
Our thoughts and prayers are with his family. 🙏 May he rest in peace. pic.twitter.com/CEOPpHueyP
