Dragan Todorić (Serbian: Драган Тодорић; born 27 July 1954) is a Serbian former professional basketball player and current adviser to the President of Partizan Belgrade. He is known for a rare achievement: taking part—either as a player or subsequently as part of the club management—in each one of the 45 trophies KK Partizan won throughout its history.[1]
Club playing career
In 1967, Todorić started his playing career in Sloga from his hometown Kraljevo. While competing for young Yugoslav national team he drew attention from several Yugoslav top clubs, including Partizan fierce rivals, Crvena zvezda.[2] Eventually, he chose to sign for Partizan in 1972, and remained in the first team until 1983. During this period he played 363 official games, which puts him at 6th place of Partizan hall of fame list by number of played games. Before finishing his career in 1985, he played for OKK Belgrade (known as OKK Beko at the time) and again for Sloga. As Partizan player he won three state championships (in 1976, 1979 and 1981) one Yugoslav Cup (1979) and two Korać Cups (1978 and 1979).
National team career
Todorić represented Yugoslavia at the cadet, junior, and senior (full squad) level.
Starting in 1982, while still an active player with Partizan, Todorić got a position at the club's marketing department. He has been at the club ever since in various coaching and administrative roles — assistant coach, secretary, general secretary, and director. Currently, he is Partizan's sporting director as well as a member of its board of directors.
