N. Pekovic: “I‘ll do everything Obradovic asks!”
Nikola Pekovic was a guest in Euroleague.TV, talking about his first impressions of Panathinaikos: “I expect a lot this season, because I am in a team that can take the European championship and I am happy about that.

First he show me some moves, some extra some moves and I hope that I will learn something more to improve my game. If coach Obradovic says that I have bigger possibilities, I’ll go with it. Whatever he says I will do it. I am ready. Last season it was very hard for me. I played almost 90 games and played 35 minutes a game.
