Crvena zvezda secured a 62-57 victory over Olympiacos during the tenth round of the EuroLeague, a contest in which John Konchar made his debut for the Greek side.

Konchar logged just under 20 minutes of action without scoring, shooting 0/4 from beyond the arc. He did, however, contribute three rebounds, two assists, and two blocks.

Following the game, Konchar addressed the press, offering his initial thoughts and drawing comparisons between the EuroLeague and the NBA.

“The atmosphere is good. I wish we could have won for the fans, but it was fun playing in front of them.

I needed to improve my offensive play to secure the win for our team. Defensively, we performed well. I brought energy and recorded some blocks, but I must elevate my offensive game.

The level of physicality is higher compared to the NBA, and every possession matters here, honestly. Errors are costly, and we must generate more possessions.
