==Club coaching career==
===Radnički youth system===
After retirement in 1968, Ivković joined a youth system of Radnički Belgrade as their junior head coach. In the third season, 1973–74, he led the junior team to the Yugoslav Championship title. In 1977, he became an assistant coach for [[KK Partizan|Partizan]] under [[Ranko Žeravica]].<ref name="kss"/> In 1978, he got promoted as the Partizan's head coach which he led for two years and won the first trophies in his career. In the 1978–79 season, he won the [[Triple Crown (basketball)|triple crown]] with Partizan ([[1978–79 Yugoslav First Basketball League|Yugoslav Championship]], [[Yugoslav Basketball Cup|Yugoslav Cup]], as well as the [[1978–79 FIBA Korać Cup|FIBA Korać Cup]]). Prior to that Partizan had won only one major trophy (one Yugoslav Championship) and it was a birth-year of what eventually will become the [[List of basketball clubs in Serbia by major honours won|most successful club in Serbian history]].<ref name="mozzartsportINMEMORIAM"/>
After retirement in 1968, Ivković joined the [[youth system]] of [[BKK Radnički|Radnički Belgrade]], as their junior head coach. In his third season with the club, 1973–74, he led the junior team to the Yugoslav Junior Championship title.


===KK Partizan===
In 1980, Ivković left Partizan to join Greek side [[Aris B.C.|Aris]], where he also stayed for two seasons. Then he return to Radnički Belgrade where he spent his entire playing career, and then a three-year stint in [[KK Šibenik|Šibenka]] and two more seasons in [[KK Vojvodina|Vojvodina]]. Ivković returned to Greece in 1990 when he took over [[P.A.O.K. BC|P.A.O.K.]], to which he brought the second and last title of [[Greek Basket League|Greek Championship]] in the club's history (1992). After three years on the black-and-white bench, he moved to Athens-based [[Panionios B.C.|Panionios]], and in 1996, the peak of his club career followed when he sat on the bench of [[Olympiacos B.C.|Olympiacos]]. In the [[1996–97 FIBA EuroLeague|1996–97]] season, he brought the Red-Whites to the first title of the [[FIBA EuroLeague]]. In the same season he won a [[Greek Championship]], also.<ref name="mozzartsportINMEMORIAM"/>
In 1977, he became an assistant coach for [[KK Partizan|Partizan]], working under the club's [[head coach]] at the time, [[Ranko Žeravica]].<ref name="kss"/> In 1978, Ivković got promoted to be Partizan's head coach, a position that he held for two years. With Partizan, he won the first trophies in his club coaching career. In the 1978–79 season, he won the [[European Basketball Small Triple Crown|European Small Triple Crown]] with Partizan, as he won the [[1978–79 Yugoslav First Basketball League|Yugoslav Championship]], the [[Yugoslav Basketball Cup|Yugoslav Cup]] title, and the [[1978–79 FIBA Korać Cup|FIBA Korać Cup]] championship, all in the same season. Prior to that, Partizan had won only one major trophy (one Yugoslav Championship) in its history, and 1979 was thus a birth-year of what eventually would become the [[List of basketball clubs in Serbia by major honours won|most successful club in Serbian basketball history]].<ref name="mozzartsportINMEMORIAM"/>


===Aris===
After three years in Olympiacos, Ivković took over the [[A.E.K.–Olympiacos rivalry|city rival]] [[AEK B.C.|AEK]] and brought them the [[1999–2000 FIBA Saporta Cup|2000 FIBA Saporta Cup]]. Ivković moved from Greece to [[Russia]] in the summer of 2002, when he came to [[PBC CSKA Moscow|CSKA Moscow]], a club with a great tradition. He took over the coaching job and the club's [[Sporting director|basketball operations]] at the same time. In the next three years, the club reached the [[EuroLeague Final Four]] three times, won all three [[Russian Professional Basketball Championship|Russian Championships]] and one [[Russian Basketball Cup|Russian Cup]]. From there, he moved to Moscow's second largest club in 2005, [[MBC Dynamo Moscow|Dynamo Moscow]] for two more where he won the [[2005–06 ULEB Cup|2006 ULEB Cup]].<ref name="kss"/> In the summer of 2007, Ivković decided to take a break from his club career and was without a club for three years, only to return to Olympiacos in 2010, winning the Greek Cup in 2011 and also won the [[2011–12 Euroleague|2012 Euroleague]], with his team trailing CSKA Moscow by 19 points in the third quarter and winning with a buzzer beater by [[Georgios Printezis]] in the last seconds of the final. He also won [[Greek Basket League|Greek Championship]] with Olympiacos a few weeks later, before leaving the team after his contract expired in the end of the season.<ref name="mozzartsportINMEMORIAM"/>
In 1980, Ivković left Partizan to join Greek side [[Aris B.C.|Aris]], where he also stayed for two seasons.


===Return to Radnički===
In 2014, Ivković signed a two-year contract with the Turkish team [[Anadolu Efes S.K.|Anadolu Efes]], starting to coach from the 2014–15 season.<ref>{{cite news|title=Dušan Ivković definitivno u Efesu|url=http://www.b92.net/sport/kosarka/vesti.php?yyyy=2014&mm=05&dd=30&nav_id=854822|date=30 May 2014|newspaper=B92|language=sr}}</ref> On 1 July 2016, Ivković officially retired from professional coaching.<ref>{{cite news|title=Legendary Serbian coach Dusan Ivkovic retires at 72|url=http://www.sportando.com/en/europe/serbia/204441/legendary-serbian-coach-dusan-ivkovic-retires-at-72.html|access-date=1 July 2016|date=26 July 2016}}</ref>
After that, he returned to Radnički Belgrade, where he had previously spent his entire playing career.


===Šibenka===
==National team coaching==
He then had a three-year stint with [[KK Šibenik|Šibenka]].
===Assisting Luka Stančić with Yugoslavia junior (under-18) and cadet (under-16) teams ===
Success with the Radnički Belgrade youth team recommended Ivković for the [[Yugoslavia men's national under-18 basketball team|Yugoslav junior national team]] coaching staff, so, for the [[1976 FIBA Europe Under-18 Championship|1976 European Championship for Juniors]] in [[Santiago de Compostela]], 32-year-old coach Ivković was named assistant to the more experienced head coach [[Luka Stančić]]. The Yugoslav Juniors led by [[Aleksandar Petrović (basketball, born February 1959)|Aco Petrović]], [[Miodrag Marić|Miško Marić]], and [[Predrag Bogosavljev]] won gold by beating the [[Soviet Union men's national under-19 basketball team|Soviet Union]] 92–83 in the final.<ref name="mojsvetsporta">{{cite web |first=Dragan |last=Ilić |title=Beograd ne zaboravlja zlato Luke Stančića sa juniorima SFRJ na EP 1976. |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180714135321/http://mojsvetsporta.net/index.php/component/k2/item/1590-beograd-ne-zaboravlja-zlato-luke-stancica-sa-juniorima-sfrj-na-ep-1976 |url=http://mojsvetsporta.net/index.php/component/k2/item/1590-beograd-ne-zaboravlja-zlato-luke-stancica-sa-juniorima-sfrj-na-ep-1976 |website=mojsvetsporta.net |archive-date=14 July 2018 |accessdate=17 September 2021 |url-status=}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Ni Tkačenko nije zadržao naše zlatne juniore |url=http://www.politika.rs/sr/clanak/368587/Ni-Tkacenko-nije-zadrzao-nase-zlatne-juniore |website=politika.rs |accessdate=17 September 2021}}</ref>


===KK Vojvodina===
After the 1976 success, Ivković continued his assistant job under head coach Stančić within the Yugoslav national team youth system; in addition to assisting Stančić in the junior (under-18) national team, Ivković also assisted him in the [[Yugoslavia men's national under-16 basketball team|cadet (under-16) national team]]. He would stay at the job until 1980, winning three medals at the European Championships in the process: two silvers at the [[1977 FIBA Europe Under-16 Championship|1977 Championship for Cadets]] and the [[1980 FIBA Europe Under-18 Championship|1980 Championship for Juniors]], as well as a bronze at the [[1978 FIBA Europe Under-18 Championship|1978 Championship for Juniors]].<ref name="mojsvetsporta"/><ref>{{cite web |title=Od zlata važniji – igrači |url=http://kosmagazin.com/od-zlata-vazniji-igraci/ |website=kosmagazin.com |accessdate=14 July 2018}}</ref> Interestingly, Ivković kept doing the youth national teams assistant job even after being named to the high profile position of [[KK Partizan]]'s head coach in 1978 and winning the "[[Triple Crown (basketball)#"Small Triple Crown"|Small Triple Crown]]" with the club in 1979.
After that, Ivković spent two seasons with [[KK Vojvodina|Vojvodina]].


===PAOK===
===Yugoslavia university team head coach and assisting Krešo Ćosić with Yugoslavia national team===
Ivković returned to Greece in 1990, when he took over [[P.A.O.K. BC|P.A.O.K.]], to which he brought the second and last [[Greek Basket League|Greek League]] championship in the club's history, in 1992.
In summer 1983, with a bit of a head coaching resume under his belt already featuring appointments at KK Partizan and [[Aris B.C.]], Radnički Belgrade head coach Ivković was simultaneously named head coach of the [[Yugoslavia men's university basketball team|Yugoslavia university team]] with the upcoming [[Basketball at the 1983 Summer Universiade|Universiade]] in [[Edmonton]] his first order of business. With a roster featuring supremely talented 18-year-old [[KK Šibenka|Šibenka]] player [[Dražen Petrović]], the team got silver after losing to [[Canada men's national basketball team|Canada]] in the final.<ref name="mozzartsportINMEMORIAM">{{cite web |title=IN MEMORIAM: Dušan Duda Ivković |url=https://mozzartsport.com/kosarka/vesti/in-memoriam-dusan-duda-ivkovic/398585 |website=mozzartsport.com |access-date=17 September 2021}}</ref>


===Panionios===
At the [[1986 FIBA World Championship]] in [[Spain]], Ivković was an assistant coach for the [[Yugoslavia men's national basketball team|Yugoslavia national team]] under head coach [[Krešimir Ćosić]]. Featuring the still 21-year-old established and dominant European player [[Dražen Petrović]], who had just led his club side [[KK Cibona|Cibona]] to the second straight Euroleague title, the [[1986 FIBA World Championship squads#Group D|Yugoslavia team]] disappointingly only got bronze after losing to Soviet Union in the semifinal despite being up by 9 points with 53 seconds left in the game.<ref name="kss"/>
After three years on the black-and-white bench, he moved to Athens-based [[Panionios B.C.|Panionios]].


===Olympiacos===
Ivković also assisted Ćosić the following summer at [[EuroBasket 1987]] where Yugoslavia again, somewhat disappointingly, got bronze.
In 1996, Ivkovic moved to [[Olympiacos B.C.|Olympiacos]]. With Olympiacos, in the [[1996–97 FIBA EuroLeague|1996–97]] season, he brought the Red-Whites to their first [[European Basketball Triple Crown|European Triple Crown]] title. Olympiacos won that season's championship of the [[FIBA EuroLeague]], at the [[1997 FIBA EuroLeague Final Four]], and also in that same season, the club won the [[Greek Basket League]] championship and the [[Greek Basketball Cup|Greek Cup]] title.<ref name="mozzartsportINMEMORIAM"/>


===AEK===
Barely three weeks after assisting Ćosić at EuroBasket 1987, Ivković was again the head coach of the Yugoslavia university team, this time at the [[Basketball at the 1987 Summer Universiade|Universiade]] at home in [[Zagreb]]. The team, featuring now 22-year-old European superstar Petrović, won gold in dominant fashion.
After three years at Olympiacos, Ivković took over the [[A.E.K.–Olympiacos rivalry|city rival]] [[AEK B.C.|AEK]], and he brought them the [[1999–2000 FIBA Saporta Cup|2000 FIBA Saporta Cup]] championship.


===Head coach===
===CSKA Moscow===
Ivković moved from Greece to [[Russia]], in the summer of 2002, when he came to [[PBC CSKA Moscow|CSKA Moscow]], a club with a great tradition. He took over their head coaching job and also the club's [[Sporting director|basketball operations]], at the same time. In the next three years, the Russian club reached the [[EuroLeague Final Four]] three times, won all three [[Russian Professional Basketball Championship|Russian Championships]], and also one [[Russian Basketball Cup|Russian Cup]] title.
In 1988, Ivković succeeded Ćosić as [[head coach]] of the senior [[Yugoslavia national basketball team|Yugoslavian national basketball team]], and held the post until the [[breakup of Yugoslavia]], in 1991.<ref name="mozzartsportINMEMORIAM"/>


===Dynamo Moscow===
Ivković then assumed the head coaching position of the senior [[Serbia and Montenegro men's national basketball team|FR Yugoslavia]]. He guided the team to a gold medal at [[EuroBasket 1995]], in the country's first official appearance since the [[UN]] lifted [[Sanctions against Yugoslavia|sanctions against FR Yugoslavia]]. Following EuroBasket, [[Željko Obradović]] took over as head coach, while Ivković assumed the role of team manager. Both Obradović and Ivković remained in their posts until jointly resigning in November 2000, following a sixth-place finish in the [[Basketball at the 2000 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2000 Summer Olympics]].<ref>[http://www.arhiva.srbija.gov.rs/vesti/2000-11/22/22231.html Ivković i Obradović podneli ostavke]. ''Tanjug'' (via ''srbija.gov.rs''), 21 November 2000. {{in lang|sr}}</ref>
From there, he moved to Moscow's second largest club in 2005, [[MBC Dynamo Moscow|Dynamo Moscow]], for two seasons, where he won the [[2005–06 ULEB Cup|2006 ULEB Cup]] championship.<ref name="kss"/> In the summer of 2007, Ivković decided to take a break from his club coaching career, and he was without a club for three years.

At the final tournament, he led Serbia to the [[EuroBasket 2009 final|final]] where they would lose to Spain and finish the tournament with a silver medal.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.reuters.com/article/sportsNews/idUSTRE58J1QU20090920 |title=Spain crush Serbia to take European gold |first=Mark |last=Elkington |publisher=Reuters |date=20 September 2009 |access-date=2023-09-11}}</ref>
He then returned to Olympiacos in 2010. With Olympiacos, he won the [[Greek Basketball Cup|Greek Cup]] title in 2011, and also the 2012 the EuroLeague championship, at the [[2012 EuroLeague Final Four]]. Olympiacos came back to win the EuroLeague championship, after they trailed [[PBC CSKA Moscow|CSKA Moscow]] by 19 points in the third quarter. They won the EuroLeague championship with a [[buzzer-beater]] basket by [[Georgios Printezis]], from an [[assist (basketball)|assist]] by [[Vassilis Spanoulis]], in the last seconds of the [[EuroLeague Final]]. Ivković also won the 2012 [[Greek Basket League|Greek League]]'s championship, with Olympiacos a few weeks later, before leaving the team, after his contract expired at the end of the season.<ref name="mozzartsportINMEMORIAM"/> He was named the [[PSAT Sports Awards|Best Sports Coach in Greece]] for 2012.


===Efes===
He led Serbia to fourth place at the [[2010 FIBA World Championship]]. In April 2011, he agreed to work [[pro bono]] for the remainder of his contract.<ref name="Politika 2011">{{cite web |url=https://www.politika.rs/sr/clanak/174831/Kosarka/Ivkovic-selektor-bez-plate |author=[[Politika]] |title=Ivković selektor bez plate |accessdate=17 September 2021 |date=21 April 2011 |language=Serbian}}</ref>
In 2014, Ivković signed a two-year contract with the [[Turkish Basketball Super League|Turkish Super League]] team [[Anadolu Efes S.K.|Anadolu Efes]], with him starting to coach the club in the 2014–15 season.<ref>{{cite news|title=Dušan Ivković definitivno u Efesu|url=http://www.b92.net/sport/kosarka/vesti.php?yyyy=2014&mm=05&dd=30&nav_id=854822|date=30 May 2014|newspaper=B92|language=sr}}</ref> On 1 July 2016, Ivković officially retired from professional coaching.<ref>{{cite news|title=Legendary Serbian coach Dusan Ivkovic retires at 72|url=http://www.sportando.com/en/europe/serbia/204441/legendary-serbian-coach-dusan-ivkovic-retires-at-72.html|access-date=1 July 2016|date=26 July 2016}}</ref>


==National team coaching==
He led Serbia to 8th place at [[EuroBasket 2011]] which meant Serbia failed to qualify for the [[Basketball at the 2012 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2012 Summer Olympics]].
===Assisting Luka Stančić with Yugoslavia's national junior (under-18) and cadet (under-16) teams ===
Success with the Radnički Belgrade youth teams led to Ivković being recommended for the [[Yugoslavia men's national under-18 basketball team|Yugoslav junior national team]] coaching staff. So, for the [[1976 FIBA Europe Under-18 Championship|1976 European Championship for Juniors]], in [[Santiago de Compostela]], 32-year-old coach Ivković was named assistant to the more experienced head coach [[Luka Stančić]]. The Yugoslav juniors, led by [[Aleksandar Petrović (basketball, born February 1959)|Aco Petrović]], [[Miodrag Marić|Miško Marić]], and [[Predrag Bogosavljev]], won gold by beating the [[Soviet Union men's national under-19 basketball team|Soviet Union]] 92–83 in the final.<ref name="mojsvetsporta">{{cite web |first=Dragan |last=Ilić |title=Beograd ne zaboravlja zlato Luke Stančića sa juniorima SFRJ na EP 1976. |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180714135321/http://mojsvetsporta.net/index.php/component/k2/item/1590-beograd-ne-zaboravlja-zlato-luke-stancica-sa-juniorima-sfrj-na-ep-1976 |url=http://mojsvetsporta.net/index.php/component/k2/item/1590-beograd-ne-zaboravlja-zlato-luke-stancica-sa-juniorima-sfrj-na-ep-1976 |website=mojsvetsporta.net |date=25 November 2016 |archive-date=14 July 2018 |accessdate=17 September 2021 |url-status=}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Ni Tkačenko nije zadržao naše zlatne juniore |url=http://www.politika.rs/sr/clanak/368587/Ni-Tkacenko-nije-zadrzao-nase-zlatne-juniore |website=politika.rs |accessdate=17 September 2021}}</ref>


After the 1976 success, Ivković continued his assistant job under head coach Stančić, within the Yugoslav national team's [[youth system]]; in addition to assisting Stančić on the junior (under-18) national team, Ivković also assisted him in the [[Yugoslavia men's national under-16 basketball team|cadet (under-16) national team]].

===Yugoslavia university team head coach and assisting Krešo Ćosić with the Yugoslavia national team===
==Personal life==
In summer 1983, with a bit of a head coaching resume under his belt—already featuring хигх’профиле appointments at KK Partizan and [[Aris B.C.|Aris]]—the Radnički Belgrade head coach Ivković was simultaneously named head coach of the [[Yugoslavia men's university basketball team|Yugoslavia university team]], with the upcoming [[Basketball at the 1983 Summer Universiade|Universiade]] in [[Edmonton]] being his first order of business. With a roster featuring supremely talented 18-year-old [[KK Šibenka|Šibenka]] player [[Dražen Petrović]], the team took silver after losing to [[Canada men's national basketball team|Canada]] in the final.<ref name="mozzartsportINMEMORIAM">{{cite web |title=IN MEMORIAM: Dušan Duda Ivković |url=https://mozzartsport.com/kosarka/vesti/in-memoriam-dusan-duda-ivkovic/398585 |website=mozzartsport.com |access-date=17 September 2021}}</ref>

At the [[1986 FIBA World Championship]] in [[Spain]], Ivković was an assistant coach for the [[Yugoslavia men's national basketball team|Yugoslavia national team]] under head coach [[Krešimir Ćosić]]. Featuring the still only 21-year-old but already established and dominant European player [[Dražen Petrović]], who had just led his club side [[KK Cibona|Cibona]] to their second straight [[EuroLeague]] title, the [[1986 FIBA World Championship squads#Group D|Yugoslavian team]] disappointingly only got bronze after losing to the [[Soviet Union men's national basketball team|Soviet Union]] in the semifinals despite being up by 9 points with 53 seconds left in the game.<ref name="kss"/>
Ivković was a record-holding [[Pigeon racing|pigeon racer]].<ref name=statusmagazine/><ref>{{cite web |title=OD NJE NIJE OSTAO: Duda Ivković je samo jednu stvar voleo više od košarke |url=https://www.novosti.rs/sport/kosarka/1036754/duda-ivkovic-samo-jednu-stvar-voleo-vise-kosarke |website=novosti.rs |access-date=16 September 2021}}</ref>

Ivković also assisted Ćosić the following summer at [[EuroBasket 1987]] where Yugoslavia again, somewhat disappointingly, got bronze. Barely three weeks after assisting Ćosić at EuroBasket 1987, Ivković was again the head coach of the Yugoslavian university team, this time at the [[Basketball at the 1987 Summer Universiade|Universiade]] at home in [[Zagreb]]. The team, featuring now 22-year-old European superstar Petrović, won gold in dominant fashion.

===Head coach===
In 1988, Ivković succeeded Ćosić as the [[head coach]] of the senior men's [[Yugoslavia national basketball team|Yugoslavian national team]], and he held the post until the [[breakup of Yugoslavia]], in 1991.<ref name="mozzartsportINMEMORIAM"/>

Ivković then assumed the head coaching position of the senior men's [[Serbia and Montenegro men's national basketball team|FR Yugoslavian national team]]. He guided the FR Yugoslavia national team to a gold medal at the [[1995 EuroBasket]], in the country's first official appearance since the [[UN]] lifted [[Sanctions against Yugoslavia|sanctions against FR Yugoslavia]]. At the following [[1997 EuroBasket]] tournament, [[Željko Obradović]] took over as the team's head coach, while Ivković assumed the role of team manager. Both Obradović and Ivković remained in their posts, until they jointly resigned in November 2000, following a sixth-place finish at the [[Basketball at the 2000 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2000 Summer Olympics]].<ref>[http://www.arhiva.srbija.gov.rs/vesti/2000-11/22/22231.html Ivković i Obradović podneli ostavke].

Dušan "Duda" Ivković (Serbian Cyrillic: Душан "Дуда" Ивковић; 29 October 1943 – 16 September 2021) was a Serbian professional basketball player and coach. He served as head coach of the senior Serbian national basketball team from 2007 to 2013, and of the senior Yugoslavian national basketball team, from 1987[1][2] (Serbia and Montenegro competed as the FR Yugoslavia national team following the breakup of Yugoslavia) to 1995.[2] He was also the president of the Serbian club BKK Radnički.

In 2008, he was named one of the 50 Greatest EuroLeague Contributors. He was elected to the FIBA Hall of Fame in 2017.[3] He was also named a EuroLeague Basketball Legend in 2017.[4][5]

Playing career

[edit]

A point guard, Ivković played 10 seasons of club basketball in Yugoslavia, from 1958 to 1968. He spent his entire club playing career with Radnički Belgrade. He retired as a player in 1968, and then joined Radnički Belgrade's youth system as a head coach.[6]

Club coaching career

[edit]

Radnički youth system

[edit]

After retirement in 1968, Ivković joined the youth system of Radnički Belgrade, as their junior head coach. In his third season with the club, 1973–74, he led the junior team to the Yugoslav Junior Championship title.

KK Partizan

[edit]

In 1977, he became an assistant coach for Partizan, working under the club's head coach at the time, Ranko Žeravica.[7] In 1978, Ivković got promoted to be Partizan's head coach, a position that he held for two years. With Partizan, he won the first trophies in his club coaching career. In the 1978–79 season, he won the European Small Triple Crown with Partizan, as he won the Yugoslav Championship, the Yugoslav Cup title, and the FIBA Korać Cup championship, all in the same season. Prior to that, Partizan had won only one major trophy (one Yugoslav Championship) in its history, and 1979 was thus a birth-year of what eventually would become the most successful club in Serbian basketball history.[8]

Aris

[edit]

In 1980, Ivković left Partizan to join Greek side Aris, where he also stayed for two seasons.

Return to Radnički

[edit]

After that, he returned to Radnički Belgrade, where he had previously spent his entire playing career.

Šibenka

[edit]

He then had a three-year stint with Šibenka.

KK Vojvodina

[edit]

After that, Ivković spent two seasons with Vojvodina.

PAOK

[edit]

Ivković returned to Greece in 1990, when he took over P.A.O.K., to which he brought the second and last Greek League championship in the club's history, in 1992.

Panionios

[edit]

After three years on the black-and-white bench, he moved to Athens-based Panionios.

Olympiacos

[edit]

In 1996, Ivkovic moved to Olympiacos. With Olympiacos, in the 1996–97 season, he brought the Red-Whites to their first European Triple Crown title. Olympiacos won that season's championship of the FIBA EuroLeague, at the 1997 FIBA EuroLeague Final Four, and also in that same season, the club won the Greek Basket League championship and the Greek Cup title.[8]

AEK

[edit]

After three years at Olympiacos, Ivković took over the city rival AEK, and he brought them the 2000 FIBA Saporta Cup championship.

CSKA Moscow

[edit]

Ivković moved from Greece to Russia, in the summer of 2002, when he came to CSKA Moscow, a club with a great tradition. He took over their head coaching job and also the club's basketball operations, at the same time. In the next three years, the Russian club reached the EuroLeague Final Four three times, won all three Russian Championships, and also one Russian Cup title.

Dynamo Moscow

[edit]

From there, he moved to Moscow's second largest club in 2005, Dynamo Moscow, for two seasons, where he won the 2006 ULEB Cup championship.[7] In the summer of 2007, Ivković decided to take a break from his club coaching career, and he was without a club for three years.

Return to Olympiacos

[edit]

He then returned to Olympiacos in 2010. With Olympiacos, he won the Greek Cup title in 2011, and also the 2012 the EuroLeague championship, at the 2012 EuroLeague Final Four. Olympiacos came back to win the EuroLeague championship, after they trailed CSKA Moscow by 19 points in the third quarter. They won the EuroLeague championship with a buzzer-beater basket by Georgios Printezis, from an assist by Vassilis Spanoulis, in the last seconds of the EuroLeague Final. Ivković also won the 2012 Greek League's championship, with Olympiacos a few weeks later, before leaving the team, after his contract expired at the end of the season.[8] He was named the Best Sports Coach in Greece for 2012.

Efes

[edit]

In 2014, Ivković signed a two-year contract with the Turkish Super League team Anadolu Efes, with him starting to coach the club in the 2014–15 season.[9] On 1 July 2016, Ivković officially retired from professional coaching.[10]

National team coaching

[edit]

Assisting Luka Stančić with Yugoslavia's national junior (under-18) and cadet (under-16) teams

[edit]

Success with the Radnički Belgrade youth teams led to Ivković being recommended for the Yugoslav junior national team coaching staff. So, for the 1976 European Championship for Juniors, in Santiago de Compostela, 32-year-old coach Ivković was named assistant to the more experienced head coach Luka Stančić. The Yugoslav juniors, led by Aco Petrović, Miško Marić, and Predrag Bogosavljev, won gold by beating the Soviet Union 92–83 in the final.[11][12]

After the 1976 success, Ivković continued his assistant job under head coach Stančić, within the Yugoslav national team's youth system; in addition to assisting Stančić on the junior (under-18) national team, Ivković also assisted him in the cadet (under-16) national team. He would stay at the job until 1980, winning three medals at the European Championships in the process: two silver medals at the 1977 Championship for Cadets and the 1980 Championship for Juniors, as well as a bronze medal at the 1978 Championship for Juniors.[11][13] Ivković kept doing the youth national team's assistant job, even after being named to the high profile position of KK Partizan's head coach in 1978, and winning the "European Small Triple Crown" with the club, in 1979.

Yugoslavia university team head coach and assisting Krešo Ćosić with the Yugoslavia national team

[edit]

In summer 1983, with a bit of a head coaching resume under his belt—already featuring хигх’профиле appointments at KK Partizan and Aris—the Radnički Belgrade head coach Ivković was simultaneously named head coach of the Yugoslavia university team, with the upcoming Universiade in Edmonton being his first order of business. With a roster featuring supremely talented 18-year-old Šibenka player Dražen Petrović, the team took silver after losing to Canada in the final.[8]

At the 1986 FIBA World Championship in Spain, Ivković was an assistant coach for the Yugoslavia national team under head coach Krešimir Ćosić. Featuring the still only 21-year-old but already established and dominant European player Dražen Petrović, who had just led his club side Cibona to their second straight EuroLeague title, the Yugoslavian team disappointingly only got bronze after losing to the Soviet Union in the semifinals despite being up by 9 points with 53 seconds left in the game.[7]

Ivković also assisted Ćosić the following summer at EuroBasket 1987 where Yugoslavia again, somewhat disappointingly, got bronze. Barely three weeks after assisting Ćosić at EuroBasket 1987, Ivković was again the head coach of the Yugoslavian university team, this time at the Universiade at home in Zagreb. The team, featuring now 22-year-old European superstar Petrović, won gold in dominant fashion.

Head coach

[edit]

In 1988, Ivković succeeded Ćosić as the head coach of the senior men's Yugoslavian national team, and he held the post until the breakup of Yugoslavia, in 1991.[8]

Ivković then assumed the head coaching position of the senior men's FR Yugoslavian national team. He guided the FR Yugoslavia national team to a gold medal at the 1995 EuroBasket, in the country's first official appearance since the UN lifted sanctions against FR Yugoslavia. At the following 1997 EuroBasket tournament, Željko Obradović took over as the team's head coach, while Ivković assumed the role of team manager. Both Obradović and Ivković remained in their posts, until they jointly resigned in November 2000, following a sixth-place finish at the 2000 Summer Olympics.[14]

Ivković became the head coach of the senior men's Serbian national team in early 2008.[15] He took over that position from Zoran Slavnić, who had finished in dead last place with Serbia, at the 2007 EuroBasket, and whom had also failed to qualify for the 2008 Summer Olympics.[15] Ivković's first order of business was getting Serbia to qualify for the next EuroBasket, through the qualification rounds, which he was successful at. At the 2009 EuroBasket, he led Serbia to the final, where they lost to Spain, and finished the tournament with a silver medal.[16]

Following that, Ivković led Serbia to a fourth place finish at the 2010 FIBA World Championship. In April 2011, he agreed to work pro bono, for the remainder of his contract with the Serbian national team.[17] Ivković then led Serbia to an 8th place finish at the 2011 EuroBasket, which meant that Serbia failed to qualify for the 2012 Summer Olympics.

Ivković's final order of business as Serbia's head coach, was leading them at the 2013 EuroBasket. At the tournament, he led Serbia to a 7th place finish, which meant that Serbia had qualified to play at the 2014 FIBA World Cup.[18] Ivković resigned from the position of Serbian national team head coach, on 24 September 2013, citing the need for the national team to be led by someone that was younger than him.[19]

Personal life

[edit]

Ivković's elder brother Slobodan "Piva" Ivković, was also a famous basketball player and coach.[20] Ivković earned a degree from the University of Belgrade Mining and Geology Faculty.[7] Ivković was related to the famous Serbian-American scientist Nikola Tesla. Ivković's maternal grandmother, Olga Mandić, and Tesla were first cousins.[21] Coincidentally, Tesla died the same year that Ivković was born.

Ivković was a record-holding pigeon racer.[21][22] Ivković died on 16 September 2021, in Belgrade, due to a pulmonary edema and herpes.[23] He was buried at the Belgrade New Cemetery, on 21 September 2021. The funeral service was attended by numerous active and retired basketball players and coaches, including: Vlade Divac, Dragan Kićanović, Vassilis Spanoulis, Dimitris Itoudis, Žarko Paspalj, Željko Obradović, Predrag Danilović, Dino Rađa, Jure Zdovc, and others.[24]
