The story goes that a deal was struck between two sides to allow the home team to win, while in return Cibona management got to watch Budućnost's juniors practice and take whichever player they liked back to Zagreb. Knowing Paspalj was by far their best young prospect and an asset that would soon be worth a lot of money, Budućnost's club management wouldn't let him train for a few days, which meant that Cibona never saw him and therefore picked another player. </p><p>Not too long after that, Paspalj entered the senior squad.

In his very first game, he scored 38 out of his team's 67 points as Olympiacos defeated the seven-time defending champion Aris 67–59 in the opening game of the season (16/19, 8/19, 2/7). Several games later, Paspalj scored exactly half his team's points against Panathinaikos as he poured in 39 points in a 78–76 victory. One of his best performances saw him score 46 points in a 94–83 victory over Panionios, on 11/14, 13/22, 3/5. Playing on a fairly modest squad led by head coach Ioannidis, Paspalj was the go-to player in almost every match, capable of scoring from almost any angle and distance with his outside shooting a particularly deadly weapon in his arsenal. In the crucial game in the convoluted group stage of the play-offs that was used at that time, against Aris, which Olympiacos needed to win to have a chance of making the final, Paspalj went scoreless for the first quarter of the game but still ended up with 38 points (16/17, 8/16, 2/5) that powered Olympiacos to a 94–83 victory. Paspalj went on to score 30 points (11/13, 8/17, 1/3) in the game against PAOK that secured Olympiacos's first trip back to a title game in a decade. However PAOK defeated Olympiacos for the title. Other memorable games that season included a 39-point performance against arch-rivals Panathinaikos and a 43-point outburst against AEK, 40 points against Aris in the quarter-final of the Greek Cup which were the sole highlight for his team in a lopsided 121–95 loss, while in another he game he ended with 22/22 free-throws, a record of consistency that still stands as of 2015 and contrasted sharply with Paspalj's later, sudden, loss of shooting ability.

In particular his free-throw percentage nose-dived from 86% to under 50% and this led to a traumatic experience at the <a href="/wiki/1994_FIBA_European_League_Final_Four" title="1994 FIBA European League Final Four">European League Final Four</a> in <a href="/wiki/Tel_Aviv" title="Tel Aviv">Tel Aviv</a> in April 1994, when Paspalj missed a crucial free throw, with four seconds left, as Olympiacos suffered a shock defeat in the final, 59–57 to <a href="/wiki/Club_Joventut_Badalona" class="mw-redirect" title="Club Joventut Badalona">7up Joventut</a>. Paspalj was voted the <a href="/wiki/EuroLeague_Final_Four_MVP" title="EuroLeague Final Four MVP">EuroLeague Final Four MVP</a>, but the vote took place at half-time in the final, with Olympiacos seemingly headed for victory. However, although he added to his team-high of 22 points, in the semi-final against Panathinaikos, with another team-high 15 points in the final, all his points came in the first half, and he ended with 3 of 10 free-throw shooting, and later admitted to Greek television that he knew before he took the final free-throw, which he needed to score to have a chance of saving the match, that he would miss. This mental block would plague Paspalj for the remainder of his career. It transformed one of the European game's finest shooters, into a <a href="/wiki/Center_(basketball)" title="Center (basketball)">centre</a>–<a href="/wiki/Power_forward_(basketball)" class="mw-redirect" title="Power forward (basketball)">forward</a>, who relied on his experience, guile and skill on the fast break, to penetrate opposing defenses. He remained an enormously talented player, with a wealth of experience, but lost something of the vitality and spontaneity of his earlier years, when his outside shooting was often deadly effective. </p><p>In what would prove to be his final Greek League appearance for Olympiacos, in the fifth playoff game against <a href="/wiki/P.A.O.K._BC" class="mw-redirect" title="P.A.O.K. BC">PAOK Bravo</a>, in 1994, Paspalj memorably rolled back the years as he scored 30 points to lead Olympiacos to a hard-fought 70–65 victory, to take the series 3–2. Following a series of below-par performances, in which his shooting percentage had dipped alarmingly, Paspalj memorably made 3/4 free throws, 12/20 two-point shots and hit a buzzer-beater three-pointer to close the first half. This consistent shooting was reminiscent of his first two, memorable, years, and contrasted sharply with the scenes at the end of Game 1 when, after having shot 1 from 7 from the free-throw line, Paspalj made two free throws in the final seconds to immense jubilation and celebration from the stands and from teammates and opposition players alike. In his very last game for Olympiacos, in the Greek Cup final against Iraklis, he scored 17 points (3/9, 7/13, 0/2) and ended up chucking his last free throw toward the basket underarm as his shooting touch deserted him yet again. </p><p>Paspalj was asked many times to account for the sudden and dramatic loss of his shooting confidence and while he was unable to pinpoint any one cause, remarking on one occasion that the shot was a mechanism that he done for years without any problems until he began to miss regularly and question himself in the act of shooting, it is clear from television footage that his posture on shooting shifted significantly and, for reasons unknown, his unorthodox swing-shot became far more pronounced in the later, more erratic years of his career. However, Paspalj, in 1995, said that he never watched television footage of games he played in, and acknowledged that had been a mistake, as somewhere he had gone wrong in the act of shooting. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Season_with_Panathinaikos">Season with Panathinaikos</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=%C5%BDarko_Paspalj&action=edit&section=12" title="Edit section: Season with Panathinaikos"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In August 1994 Paspalj caused a sensation by transferring to bitter Athenian <a href="/wiki/Derby_of_the_eternal_enemies_(basketball)" class="mw-redirect" title="Derby of the eternal enemies (basketball)">rivals</a> <a href="/wiki/Panathinaikos_B.C." title="Panathinaikos B.C.">Panathinaikos</a>. Relations between Paspalj and the Olympiakos leadership had deteriorated during the summer and his departure to their arch-rivals infuriated Olympiacos fans. Arriving to the club hungry for trophies and financed by the Giannakopoulous brothers' pharmaceutical business, his signing was seen as a big coup for Panathinaikos – not only were the <i>greens</i> getting a marquee player in the prime of his career, but at the same time they also managed to weaken their biggest rival by luring away their best player. Therefore, the expectations were also big – success in both the domestic league and the EuroLeague was paramount. Coming into the squad that featured head coach <a href="/wiki/Efthimis_Kioumourtzoglou" title="Efthimis Kioumourtzoglou">Efthimis Kioumourtzoglou</a>, <a href="/wiki/Nikos_Galis" title="Nikos Galis">Nikos Galis</a>, <a href="/wiki/Panagiotis_Giannakis" title="Panagiotis Giannakis">Panagiotis Giannakis</a>, <a href="/wiki/Stojko_Vrankovi%C4%87" title="Stojko Vranković">Stojko Vranković</a>, <a href="/wiki/Miroslav_Pecarski" title="Miroslav Pecarski">Miroslav Pecarski</a>, <a href="/wiki/Tiit_Sokk" title="Tiit Sokk">Tiit Sokk</a>, <a href="/wiki/Aivar_Kuusmaa" title="Aivar Kuusmaa">Aivar Kuusmaa</a>, <a href="/wiki/Kostas_Patavoukas" title="Kostas Patavoukas">Kostas Patavoukas</a>, <a href="/wiki/Fragiskos_Alvertis" title="Fragiskos Alvertis">Fragiskos Alvertis</a> and <a href="/wiki/Nikos_Oikonomou" title="Nikos Oikonomou">Nikos Oikonomou</a>, Paspalj was seen as the ingredient capable of leading the team to big trophies. </p><p>Predictably, Olympiacos fans immediately turned on their former hero and hounded him whenever the two teams met. This initially intimidated Paspalj, as chance had it that his first game for Panathinaikos was against Olympiacos in the Greek Cup, played at the neutral venue – <a href="/wiki/Sporting_B.C." title="Sporting B.C.">Sporting</a>'s <a href="/wiki/Sporting_Sports_Arena" title="Sporting Sports Arena">indoor hall</a> that at the time barely seated 1,500 people. There, in a cramped arena filled with passionate fans of both teams, he played one of the worst, most nerve-wracked games of his career, and finished with 5 points (1/2, 2/11, 0/1) as Panathinaikos won a terrible game 42–40. By contrast, a month later, an inspired Paspalj, in his first league appearance against Olympiacos, memorably began the game with three consecutive 3-pointers in the opening minute, though he subsequently faded as his team lost 65–67. </p><p>However the move across town couldn't hide the flaws in Paspalj's game and his shot continued to deteriorate. His free throw percentage dipped still further and in many games was well below 50%, while three-point shots became a rarity, with just one three-pointer from eight attempts in the entire EuroLeague season. He was the top-scorer for his new team with 19 points per game but failed to lift them beyond second place in the Greek League and the semi-finals of the EuroLeague, when in both cases Panathinaikos was defeated by Olympiacos, which made even the Panathinaikos fans disillusioned with him. The return league game against Olympiacos, which Panathinaikos won 74–72 away from home, typified Paspalj's up-and-down season, as he began brightly with 8 points in the opening minutes, faded and remained scoreless until the last minute of the game, then scored the last five points that steered Panathinaikos to victory, but missed a free throw with 3 seconds remaining that ultimately cost his team the head-to-head record that gave Olympiacos the crucial home court advantage throughout the play-offs. Paspalj's performances in the five-game playoff final series with Olympiacos were particularly disappointing, as although he scored 21 and 19 points in games 2 and 4 (when Panathinaikos played at home), he hit just 18 points in the three games played on Olympiacos territory, including 4 points in game 3 and just 2 points in the decisive game 5, which Panathinaikos lost 45–44. </p><p>This was evident during the <a href="/wiki/1995_EuroBasket" class="mw-redirect" title="1995 EuroBasket">1995 EuroBasket</a> held in Athens, when fans of both clubs jeered him, although a huge chunk of their dissatisfaction could be attributed to Paspalj being the captain of the powerhouse Yugoslav squad that just ended Greek hopes of winning the title on home soil in an emotionally charged semi-final. Lifting that trophy in front of the Athens crowd served as huge vindication and confidence boost for Paspalj after a couple of tough seasons, and the release of tension was evident in his jubilant locker-room interview with Vassilis Skountis when Paspalj ebulliently joined in with the chant (meant ironically in this instance as he was clutching the trophy in his arms) that "You will never lift the Cup, Paspalj, Paspalj!" </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Panionios">Panionios</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=%C5%BDarko_Paspalj&action=edit&section=13" title="Edit section: Panionios"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Paspalj moved on in late summer of 1995 and after rumors of a move to Real Madrid proved unfounded, began the new season with <a href="/wiki/Panionios_Afisorama" class="mw-redirect" title="Panionios Afisorama">Panionios Afisorama</a>, also of Athens (<a href="/wiki/Nea_Smyrni" title="Nea Smyrni">Nea Smyrni</a>). This was a smaller club that had regularly over-achieved, and it had the good fortune of being led by the great <a href="/wiki/Du%C5%A1an_Ivkovi%C4%87" title="Dušan Ivković">Dušan Ivković</a> who knew Paspalj well from coaching him in the national team. Ivkovic became a father-figure to Paspalj and improved his self-confidence and his general game, and Paspalj inspired <a href="/wiki/Panionios_B.C." title="Panionios B.C.">Panionios</a> to third place in the league with a series of fine performances indicating that after two lean years he was nearing his peak once more. In just the second game of the season, Paspalj missed all eight two-point shots against Peristeri but still finished with 13 points, from 10/13 free throws and one three-pointer, indicating that his shot gradually was returning. In one performance against Sporting he scored 42 points (11/16, 14/19, 1/2), his highest since his second year at Olympiacos, while in a <a href="/wiki/1995%E2%80%9396_FIBA_Kora%C4%87_Cup" title="1995–96 FIBA Korać Cup">FIBA Korać Cup</a> match against <a href="/wiki/KK_Borovica" title="KK Borovica">Borovica Ruma</a> he hit 36 on 8/9 free throws and 14/18 two-point attempts. Throughout the season his shooting became more confident and he gradually regained his ability to hit outside shots. This culminated in a match against <a href="/wiki/Irakleio_B.C." class="mw-redirect" title="Irakleio B.C.">Irakleio</a> in 1996, when despite missing his first free-throw attempt he hit the next 15, something that would have been routine in 1991 and 1992 but unthinkable in 1994 and 1995. </p><p>This was evident in both the semi-final of the A1 Playoffs, when he nearly led his team past Panathinaikos ending the three game series with 100% shooting from the free-throw line (4/4, 3/3, and 4/4), and in the 3rd place playoff, when he led Panionios to a 3–0 sweep of PAOK with 27, 26 and 17 points. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="1996–97_season"><span id="1996.E2.80.9397_season"></span>1996–97 season</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=%C5%BDarko_Paspalj&action=edit&section=14" title="Edit section: 1996–97 season"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Aborted_move_to_Atlanta_Hawks">Aborted move to Atlanta Hawks</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=%C5%BDarko_Paspalj&action=edit&section=15" title="Edit section: Aborted move to Atlanta Hawks"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Paspalj had a very eventful summer in 1996. The rediscovered confidence and form became evident at the <a href="/wiki/Basketball_at_the_1996_Summer_Olympics_%E2%80%93_Men%27s_tournament" title="Basketball at the 1996 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament">1996 Olympic Games</a> in Atlanta, when 30-year-old Paspalj scored 16 points in the first half of the final against the Dream Team as Yugoslavia only trailed 38–43 at halftime. He faded in the second half along with entire Yugoslavia team, but still ended up a top scorer with 19 points, leaving a good impression that prompted <a href="/wiki/Atlanta_Hawks" title="Atlanta Hawks">Atlanta Hawks</a> to invite him to pre-season training camp in September. This came after Paspalj very nearly rejoined Olympiacos, now managed by his former Panionios mentor Ivković – a move that would have delighted most fans of the Piraeus club, who still retained tremendous affection for Paspalj's achievement in raising the club into the powerhouse of Europe, despite his subsequent move to Panathinaikos. His stay in Atlanta, however, was even shorter than his tenure with the Spurs. A week into camp, he relinquished the guaranteed clause in his contract and returned to Europe because of family problems. The return to the NBA thus fell through and it was soon discovered that the reason for his abrupt return home were the revelations of an extramarital affair with a woman in Athens. Paspalj considered giving up basketball in the autumn of 1996 and took a break from the sport for several months to give his body a chance to recover from years of non-stop wear and tear. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Racing_Paris">Racing Paris</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=%C5%BDarko_Paspalj&action=edit&section=16" title="Edit section: Racing Paris"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Paspalj would sign with <a href="/wiki/Paris_Basket_Racing" title="Paris Basket Racing">Racing Paris</a>, joining the squad featuring France national team regulars <a href="/wiki/St%C3%A9phane_Risacher" title="Stéphane Risacher">Stéphane Risacher</a> and <a href="/wiki/Richard_Dacoury" title="Richard Dacoury">Richard Dacoury</a>, former NBA players <a href="/wiki/J._R._Reid" title="J.

Paspalj spent the 1996–97 season in Paris, leading the club to its first national title in 43 years.

This grand old club throughout the 1980s, had fallen on hard times, and was about to embark on one of the most difficult seasons of its history. </p><p>His return to the A1 League was marked by an excellent performance against Larissa, scoring 23 points on 5/6, 6/13, 2/3, suggesting that Paspalj had regained his shooting confidence. Paspalj's free throw shooting, in particular, was more consistent than at any time since the dramatic deterioration of his statistics in 1994. Paspalj had some memorable performances in the autumn of 1997, including 18 points (6/6, 6/9) in a 63–56 home victory over Panathinaikos, and a game against PAOK when he steered Aris to victory with 20 points (2/2, 9/11) in the first round and another stellar performance in the second round of the championship. He also played particularly well against his old clubs, Olympiacos and Panathinaikos, and began scoring once again with three-point shots as in his heyday in the early 1990s. Two three-pointers against PAOK in the return game, which Aris also won, proved the point, as Paspalj dominated his young compatriot, <a href="/wiki/Peja_Stojakovi%C4%87" title="Peja Stojaković">Peja Stojaković</a>, who was about to leave Greece for a stellar career in the NBA. Against Olympiacos, at a time when Aris was in economic crisis and many of its players had left the club, Paspalj top-scored 23 points (with 11/15 free throws) as he steered the team to a memorable 82–76 victory. He scored a season-high 26 points in a Korać Cup game early in December 1997. In February 1998 Paspalj, playing injured, led his team to victory in the Greek Cup, scoring 12 points (2/5, 5/10) but the majority of his teammates left the club the following day after having gone without payment for some time. Paspalj remained, but an injury meant that he did not play again that season after mid-February as Aris alarmingly dropped down the table and narrowly avoided relegation to the A2 league. His final two performances in the Greek League for Aris came in a 101–59 point humbling at Peristeri when he finished with 4 points, followed by a 72–49 win over Sporting in which he ended with 6 points, and in his last game for the club (in the Korać Cup) he ended with 18 points (8/10, 4/10, 0/4) in a defeat in Rome. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="One_last_professional_stint_in_Bologna">One last professional stint in Bologna</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=%C5%BDarko_Paspalj&action=edit&section=18" title="Edit section: One last professional stint in Bologna"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In the summer of 1998 Paspalj secured a move to the newly crowned European champions, <a href="/wiki/Virtus_Pallacanestro_Bologna" class="mw-redirect" title="Virtus Pallacanestro Bologna">Kinder Bologna</a>, allegedly as a favour to Predrag Danilović, Paspalj's great friend and a star on the team. However, effects of past injuries and years of chain-smoking caught up with him and he was cut from the team in December on medical advice from his doctor and after a series of undistinguished performances and an average of 8.2 points per game and 4 rebounds per game in domestic play. Paspalj's best performance came when he scored 18 points (2/3, 8/11) against Rimini in October, while his last game in professional basketball came on December 20, 1998, when he scored 7 points (1/1, 3/4) in 13 minutes' play against Verona. During this period he had one final appearance in front of his old Olympiacos fans, in a EuroLeague game in October 1998, scoring 2 points (0/2 1/5), but by this time Paspalj was a shadow of his former self and struggled to keep up with the pace of games. Paspalj did not at the time believe himself to have retired and harbored hopes of returning to basketball, and gave an interview to Greek television in July 1999, in which he stated his intent to play again and the possibility that he might obtain Greek citizenship to ease the process, as teams were restricted to the number of non-EU players they could sign. Neither panned out, with Paspalj recounting in a 2023 Greek television interview how no team had wanted him, and the tragedy for basketball was that a player of his caliber was unable to continue to perform at a professional level and was lost to the sport at the age of 32, but for Paspalj himself a personal near-tragedy was still to come. </p><p>Summing up his <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1154941027"><span class="frac">14<span class="sr-only">+</span><span class="num">1</span>⁄<span class="den">2</span></span> seasons in professional basketball, Paspalj is remembered for a successful globetrotting career that included a multitude of trophies and individual awards. Perhaps the single most memorable aspect of his game is the off-balance, unorthodox sling-style shooting technique he perfected — a move that served him so well in the first part of his career, but deserted him later on. </p><p>An interview with Paspalj in November 2015 for a Greek television station elicited a deluge of messages from viewers who continued to recall Paspalj with tremendous affection two decades later. Paspalj returned to Piraeus and his old Olympiakos home in September 2017 to attend a benefit game in honor of the legendary Yugoslav coach Dusan Ikvovic, and received a rapturous welcome from fans of his former club. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="National_team_career">National team career</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=%C5%BDarko_Paspalj&action=edit&section=19" title="Edit section: National team career"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Youth">Youth</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=%C5%BDarko_Paspalj&action=edit&section=20" title="Edit section: Youth"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Talented 17-year-old small forward Paspalj, playing in Budućnost's youth categories at the time, got his first taste of the Yugoslav national team system in summer 1983 when he was picked by head coach <a href="/wiki/Rusmir_Halilovic" class="mw-redirect" title="Rusmir Halilovic">Rusmir Halilović</a> to represent the country at the <a href="/wiki/1983_FIBA_Europe_Under-16_Championship" title="1983 FIBA Europe Under-16 Championship">European Championship for Cadets</a> in the <a href="/wiki/West_Germany" title="West Germany">West German</a> towns of <a href="/wiki/T%C3%BCbingen" title="Tübingen">Tübingen</a> and <a href="/wiki/Ludwigsburg" title="Ludwigsburg">Ludwigsburg</a>.
