Following the adage “never twice without a third,” Djordje Milosevic is set to continue his tenure with Champagne Basket. After a previous stint during the 2021/22 season and a return as a medical substitute last September, the winger will now also play for the 2026/27 season, as confirmed by the club.
This is excellent news for the Champagne-based team, currently sitting in 10th place in Élite 2 and in a strong position to compete for the play-in. A significant part of their current standing is due to the Serbian player, whose performance of 10.2 points and 3.7 rebounds per game has been vital this season.
Coach Eric Bartecheky’s reaction:
“Upon arriving at the club, it was important for me to rely on experienced, benchmark players. Djordje Milosevic is clearly one of them due to his understanding of the game, his experience in the division, and his natural leadership. He serves as a reference point for the group. He is also a competitor dedicated to the team, so his extension was an obvious choice. I am very happy to be able to count on him next season.”
