Court and Net Team Sports

Dejan Koturović is a retired Serbian professional basketball player, born on 31 March 1972. In Europe he played for Spartak Subotica, Partizan, PSG Racing, Ülkerspor, Alba Berlin, Virtus Bologna and Tau Cerámica. In October 2003 he signed a free-agent contract with the Phoenix Suns as a temporary replacement for the injured Scott Williams, but he was waived on 24 October 2003 once Williams recovered faster than expected. He represented FR Yugoslavia and then Serbia and Montenegro, and won gold medals at the 1995 FIBA European Championship and the 2002 FIBA World Championship, where he started in the lineup and averaged 12.8 points and 7.1 rebounds. He was briefly sent home from the 2003 European Championship camp after a dispute with coach Duško Vujošević, but he was reinstated soon afterwards.
