»I'll remember Drazen as cheerful guy who was always smiling, I'll recall Drazen as a winner. He became everything he set out to become. Even on his days off he worked, training and lifting weights. I always thought that he worked to much, but I couldn't get angry at him.«

                                                                                                 - Chuck Daly, Drazen coach in NBA
