Chema de Lucas reported on June 6, 2025, that Fenerbahce, fresh off their 2025 EuroLeague title win in Abu Dhabi, are close to signing Serbian guard Vasilije Micic, who previously played for Anadolu Efes. The move would reunite Micic with coach Sarunas Jasikevicius, who led Fenerbahce to the title and coached him at Zalgiris Kaunas in 2017-18, per Euroleaguebasketball.net archives, as the reigning champions aim to maintain their dominance in the 20-team EuroLeague next season, per BasketNews updates.
Micic’s Career Journey
Micic, the 2020-21 EuroLeague MVP and consecutive Final Four MVP (2020-22) with Anadolu Efes, averaged 6.8 points, 3.9 assists, and 1.8 rebounds in the NBA across stints with the Thunder, Hornets, and Suns, per ESPN.com stats. Before his NBA tenure, he played for Mega, Bayern Munich, Crvena Zvezda, Tofas Bursa, and Zalgiris, per his Wikipedia profile. His return to Turkiye sets up a clash with Efes, now led by Igor Kokoškov, who signed a three-year deal, per Meridian Sport on June 3, 2025.
