I have seven games left and a playoff run ahead, so my head is here. I\u2019m not thinking about what will happen next month or next year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The 33-year-old Bogdanovic will likely face a decision about his basketball future this summer. He\u2019s making slightly more than $16MM and the Clippers hold a team option for the same amount next season, but that may be too pricey for the club to pick up considering his limited production. He has appeared in just 21 games this season and is averaging 7.3 points, 2.7 rebounds and 2.4 assists in 20.4 minutes per night with .376\/.329\/.800 shooting numbers.<\/p>\n<p>Bogdanovic turned in one of his best games of the season 11 days ago with 16 points in 27 minutes against New Orleans, and he\u2019s focused on staying sharp if the Clippers need a similar performance in the postseason.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t know anything more than you,\u201d he said regarding the EuroLeague rumors. \u201cI\u2019m ready, I\u2019m working, and I\u2019m training. The season is what it is. I\u2019m trying to be in the best possible shape when the playoffs start.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bogdanovic began his professional career with Partizan in 2010, winning four Serbian League titles in four years and being named Playoffs MVP in 2014. He was drafted by Phoenix later that year, but opted to remain in Europe with Fenerbahce for three more seasons.<\/p>\n<p>He came to the NBA in 2017, spending three seasons with Sacramento and four-plus with Atlanta before the Clippers acquired him at last year\u2019s trade deadline. Injuries have contributed to his limited playing time in L.A., as he has appeared in 51 total games since the deal.<\/p>\n<p>Mozzart Sport <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mozzartsport.com\/kosarka\/vesti\/partizan-zeli-da-vrati-sve-svoje-sinove-bogdan-glavna-meta-tu-su-veseli-lovernj-smajli\/539545\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">reported<\/a> last week that Partizan is planning a major offseason overhaul with Bogdanovic as its main target. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.basketball-reference.com\/players\/e\/exumda01.html?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=www.hoopsrumors.com&amp;utm_campaign=2026-03-30_bbr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Dante Exum<\/a> was also cited as a possibility if he\u2019s able to play after undergoing season-ending knee surgery in December.
