Marko Guduric discussed Zach LeDay during an appearance on the Serbian 6.75<\/em> podcast. \u201cHe is a real character with a unique personality, but he is a good person.\u201d Guduric admitted his opinion changed after becoming his teammate. \u201cI used to think he was trying to hurt opponents, but then I became very fond of him.\u201d<\/p>\n

Guduric highlighted the current Hapoel Tel Aviv player\u2019s daily intensity. \u201cI saw how hard he works in every practice, with that crazy energy. Everything he does during games, he also does in training. He wants to win and is very good for the locker room.\u201d<\/p>\n

He also described LeDay\u2019s meticulous body-care routine and unusual backpack, which contains creams, sprays, massage devices and even food seasonings. \u201cHe also carries oxygen and uses it while sleeping before games. He is a true professional and a top guy. I really enjoyed being with him, and I will miss him this year.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
