Coaching career
On November 14, 2013, he was named a new head coach of Cibona Zagreb, after departure of Neven Spahija. He led Cibona to the ABA League championship, despite huge financial problems the club was facing. As a champion of the league, Cibona had direct spot in the EuroLeague, but withdrew from it in order to stabilize financially. Eventually, Crvena zvezda, as third in the standings, took its spot in the Euroleague.
From July 2017, he is an assistant coach of KK Cedevita in coaching staff of Jure Zdovc.
