Petrovic: Emotion and brilliance of past stars in the memorial match – Galis also in Zagreb (videos-photos)

It has been 31 years since the death of Dražen Petrović, the “Mozart of basketball,” but no one has forgotten him.

The Croatian basketball player, who “bombarded” the opposing baskets and “shattered” defenses with both Yugoslavia and later Croatia, as well as with the jerseys of Cibona, Real, Šibenik, Nets, and Blazers, died in a car accident in June 1993 at the age of 28.
