Koljen\u0161i\u0107 has had an exceptionally successful competitive year, which has been recognized at the highest level of European basketball. His selection is also a great success for the Basketball Federation of Montenegro, as well as the KSCG Referee Commission, which have been working particularly recently on improving the refereeing staff and creating conditions for the development of top referees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
-I was delighted by this decision of the Euroleague department, although it was expected, considering the grades I received from the controllers during the league part of the season. It is a great honor to be part of the Euroleague playoffs for the third time in a row. It is confirmation that work, dedication and sacrifice pay off. I am grateful to my family for their support, because without them none of this would be possible, as well as to the Basketball Association of Montenegro and the Referee Commission, who continuously give me the wind at my back, said Koljen\u0161i\u0107, who does not forget to express his gratitude to the man who helped him a lot at the beginning of his career, the legendary Veselin - Beg Begovi\u0107, a former successful referee and long-time head of the KSCG Referee Commission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
