Starting from the basics, Dejan Milojevic was a Serbian basketball coach from Belgrade. He was born in 1977. At the time of his passing away, Dejan held the position of an assistant coach for the NBA team – Golden State Warriors. That’s right since 2021. In 2022, he made it to the NBA Championship.
Well, as a coach, Dejan had served for a couple of more teams – Mega Basket, and Buducnost. However, one must note that Dejan Milojevic started his career as a player. His playing position was that of a power forward. To be more particular, he previously played for teams like – Pamesa Valencia, Partizan, and FMP.
Moving on with Dejan Milojevic’s death, it’s been a few days. Not all of his fellow fans are aware of the cause. It was difficult for all of us to accept that he was no more. What went wrong suddenly? Here is your answer.
Cause Of Dejan Milojevic’s Death Discussed
It was on 17 January 2024, Dejan Milojevic died suddenly, and the news is itself very saddening. The major cause of his death was a heart attack.
A day before, that was, on 16 January, the basketball coach suffered a heart attack. At that time, he was not at his home but at a restaurant in Salt Lake City.
More precisely, he was with some of the players and coaches of his team, the Golden State Warriors. Following the incident, he was rushed to the hospital. Many life-saving efforts were made by the medical experts. Sadly, it didn’t help.
As the news of Dejan Milojevic’s death came out to the public, everyone shared their heartfelt thoughts, paying tribute to him. The head coach of the Golden State Warriors, Steve Kerr, wrote, “We are devastated by Dejan’s sudden passing.”
He further added that his death was a “shocking and tragic blow for everyone associated with the Warriors.” He admitted to having had the incredible pleasure of working with Dejan.
Unfortunately, his death case from a heart attack led to another theory too- it was caused by a COVID-19 vaccine. What? Yes. By now, you should know that these vaccines causing health issues and can also be life-threatening, are usually by the groups opposed to vaccination.
One must note that Dejan Milojevic was very much fit and healthy, even on the previous day. That’s why his “sudden death” eventually sparked the theories of the COVID-19 vaccine being one of the reasons for his health deterioration. It’s unconfirmed, though.
Following Dejan Milojevic’s passing away, the political economist, Toby Rogers made a post that stated Steve Kerr is a huge supporter of the COVID-19 vaccine and he should be arrested.
A part of his post said, ”Anyone who received a Covid shot should immediately begin a post-vaccine treatment protocol.” About this speculation, a fan wrote, “Before COVID no one younger than 47 died.”
However, on the other hand, some people shared that the COVID-19 vaccines are “safe and effective.” On this note, a person addressed Toby Rogers’ post as “a new level of insanity.”
Keeping this discussion aside, what’s more saddening is Dejan Milojevic’s loss. There was no record of his illness or any kind of health issues. Also, he was in the middle of his 40s, which was the shockest part.
Dejan Milojevic was married to Natasa. They shared a couple of kids- Nikola, and Masa. It’s indeed a very bad phase for them.
But we believe, the mother will be able to take care of the two. It feels very heartbreaking to see them mourning the loss. That’s how much harsh, our lives are.
No wonder, Dejan Milojevic was a great coach. He successfully made it to the Montenegrin Cup, Serbian Cup, etc. In short, it’s a huge loss to the NBA industry. May Dejan Milojevic’s soul rest in peace. Sending condolences to his family.
