Скачать или смотреть Divac vs Petrovic: Brother Bretrayed by War

The tragic story of Vlade Divac and Dražen Petrović is one of the most heartbreaking chapters in basketball history. Once inseparable friends and pioneers for European stars in the NBA, their bond was shattered by the rising ethnic tensions of the Yugoslav Wars.

It all began with a single moment in 1990, when Divac yanked a Croatian flag from his teammate during a championship celebration. To Divac, it was about keeping politics out of sports. To Petrović, a national hero in Croatia, it was unforgivable.

The war divided them forever. Petrović and Divac never spoke again. And when Dražen tragically died in a car accident in 1993, the silence between them became permanent.

This mini documentary revisits Once Brothers, exploring the flag incident, the war’s impact, and how politics destroyed one of the greatest friendships the game has ever seen.
