Not much of surprise as we knew that he was going to get stashed this year.

Seems that team has gone through some financial troubles as of late.

Bummer. He's the one I really wanted on the team this year.

Cibona was a pretty storied franchise during the times of former Yugoslavia. Moreover, since the creation of the Croatian A1 in 1990, they have placed no worse than league semis. They also play in the Adriatic league. He's in a good place.

That is cool.  Will look forward to your reports.

I think this is a good thing.  We have no slot for him this season.  He is better off playing in Europe.

How's the team he will play for? Is the competition in that league good enough to push him to develop? Is the coach likely to play young guys and develop them or does he usually bench them in favor of vets and wins?

His main league is pretty mediocre, but they also qualify for the Adriatic League, which is like a pan-Eastern European basketball Champions' League.  There's pretty good competition there.
