"All the awards and praises came in handy to finish my College career. Despite all professional offers I answered the same way – I said no. I was drafted for the NBA by the Los Angeles Lakers. I just couldn’t accept becoming a professional player in which case money would control my life and being. I didn’t want to subside just to basketball and only be a basketball player. I was aware that life had wider, deeper and higher dimensions than the game. I knew that true magic was in real, not bought, competition. So, at an early age, I decided that money, fame and vanity can’t mean anything. I will play, live and in that I will succeed."
KrešoKreso je bio sve u košarci igrački velemajstor elegancija i inteligencija neponovljivi trenerski mag ostace zauvijek legenda.
Koja su to vrimena bila s Krešom u Jazinama. Koja je to ljubav bila od Kreše za svoj Zadar. Koja je to kemija bila između Kreše i ondašnjih navijača.Koji je to dišpet bio za učinjenu nepravdu. Onaj tko te emocije nije osobno doživio samo može pokušati dočarati taj dragocijen i neponovljiv osječaj. Krešo je bio i ostao jedan,jedini i poseban čovjek i košarkaš.
