He used his chance during the summer and earned himself a 4-year contract with the reigning ABA League champions.

“This is a big honor for me, but it is also an obligation to continue with hard work in the future. This is also a proof that hard work always pays off as I managed to reach the senior team despite the injury I suffered last year. Every training with this team and coach Radonjić is a huge experience for me and a big opportunity to learn many things. Crvena zvezda is my club. I did not hide that in 2019 when I arrived here and I won’t hide it now. The support that this club gave me during the period when I was recovering from injury meant a lot to me and that is why I will try to use every minute during trainings and games to improve my skills and to try to repay the club that stood by me in difficult times,” said Gušić.
