Zoran Lukic is a good qualified specialist, he has proven by his work in Paris Nizhny Novgorod that he knows how to achieve results, Sergei Elevich, a member of the coaching council of the Russian Basketball Federation (RFB), told .
On Thursday, Lukich was appointed head coach of the Russian national team until 2028.
“Today the council was adopted quite quickly: they met only for the purpose of retaining coaches of teams of all ages in the men’s national teams. Lukic, I repeat, stayed for four years. He is a very good, qualified specialist. After all, Nizhny Novgorod has one of the smallest budgets, but he has proven by his work that he knows how to achieve results. The coaching council unanimously approved Lukich and introduced him to the executive committee,” Elevich told .
Lukich led the Russian national team in October 2021. The 52-year-old Serb’s contract with RFB was valid until September. Until May 2024, he combines his position in the national team with his work at the Parisian club Nizhny Novgorod.
The Russian national team has been suspended from participating in international tournaments due to the situation in Ukraine.
