Derthona's fourth arrival is Milos Divac.
200cm strong forward, Divac was born in Podgorica, Montenegro, on 12 May 1998. After starting out in his homeland, in the summer of 2013 he moved to Pistoia and joined the youth sector of Pistoia Basket 2000. In 2015 he was an active part of the team that won the Under16 Scudetto; from the following summer he divided himself between the Under18 tournament with the Pistoia shirt and the experience in Serie B with the Bottegone Pistoia shirt, within a team made up largely of other boys from the Pistoia youth sector.
In the Bottegone shirt, in his first year in Serie B he played 27 games, scoring 2.2 points in 12' of average usage. In the season just ended, as the playing time increased, reaching 28 minutes on average, there was an increase in personal production, which rose to 8.5 points and 5 rebounds, with 50% from 2 points and 37% from behind the ball. the arc of the three points.
Thus the sporting director Miro De Giuli: "We are bringing in a young and promising player, who over the last two seasons has been able to respond with personality to the double commitment between the youth sector and Serie B. We are happy to have concluded this negotiation and extremely confident that Milos can carve out his own space in our long team right from the first outings."
These are the words of Milos Divac: “I am very happy with the opportunity that Derthona is offering me and with being able to play in an exciting and educational tournament like the A2 series. For me it will be an important leap, after two years in Serie B, but I will be able to count on some important references such as the knowledge of the coach and the support of a very ambitious club. I promise I will give my best on the pitch."
