Slobodan Subotić
Slovenian basketball player and coach
Slobodan "Piksi" Subotić (Serbian Cyrillic: Слободан Суботић, Greek: Σλόμπονταν Σούμποτιτς; born 15 August 1956) is a Greek-Slovenian professional basketball coach and former player. He last served as the head coach for Budućnost of the ABA League, Montenegrin League and the EuroCup.[1]
He has Greek citizenship, which he obtained to circumvent EU administrative restrictions while playing and coaching there. To be able to obtain Greek citizenship, he had to administratively change his name in the eyes of Greek law, and is thus known there as Slompontan "Lefteris" Soumpotits[2][3] (Greek: Σλόμπονταν "Λευτέρης" Σούμποτιτς). In addition to having Slovenian and Greek citizenship, he also holds Bosnian citizenship.[4][5] At 2.02 m (6'7 1⁄2") tall, he was a talented swingman, with incredible shooting ability.
