Kentucky, Louisville, Arizona, and several other elite programs fought for his signature, but in the end, Mark Pope&#8217;s project and &#8211; huge money decided it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to American media reports, the value of his NIL contract (earnings from marketing rights and commercial activities) ranges between six and 6.5 million dollars, which ranks him among the highest-paid college basketball players in the United States of America. Some sources claim that during the negotiations the price went up to 7.5 million dollars, while earlier estimates spoke of even eight million!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p lang=\"und\" dir=\"ltr\">BBN!\ud83d\udc99 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/2MB1iYREk8\">pic.twitter.com\/2MB1iYREk8<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Milan Momcilovic (@MilanMomcilovi5) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/MilanMomcilovi5\/status\/2061629412852805939?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 2, 2026<\/a><\/blockquote> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Americans see Mom\u010dilovi\u0107 as a player who can change Kentucky&#8217;s season. Last year in the Iowa State jersey, he recorded 16.9 points per game, and an incredible 48.7 percent of three-point shooting made him one of the deadliest shooters in the entire NCAA competition. In addition, he made as many as 136 three-pointers, the most in the entire country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Interestingly, Mom\u010dilovi\u0107 previously tested the NBA market, but the assessment was that he would most likely be selected only in the second round of the draft. When offers heavy with several million dollars arrived on the table, the decision about another season in college became much easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">American media call his arrival at Kentucky the biggest signing of the summer and a move that could return one of the most trophy-winning NCAA programs to the very top of university basketball.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Iowa State transfer Milan Momcilovic has committed to Kentucky\ud83d\udd25 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/8J0dFS1qLW\">pic.twitter.com\/8J0dFS1qLW<\/a><\/p>&mdash; B\/R Hoops (@brhoops) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/brhoops\/status\/2061632245052436960?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 2, 2026<\/a><\/blockquote> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Serbia follows Milan<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Particularly interesting for the domestic public is the fact that Mom\u010dilovi\u0107 has Serbian roots. He was born in the American state of Wisconsin, into a family of Serbian emigrants who arrived in the US during the nineties. Precisely because of this, his name has been carefully followed for a long time by people from the Basketball Federation of Serbia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is great hope in the Serbian basketball public that the talented shooter could one day wear the jersey of the &#8220;Eagles&#8221;, and the KSS is already working on a project to gather young players of Serbian origin from America and track them through a special development program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p lang=\"zxx\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/shZeFVdr2L\">pic.twitter.com\/shZeFVdr2L<\/a><\/p>&mdash; CAMERON MILLS (@CameronMillz) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CameronMillz\/status\/2061640184261644492?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 2, 2026<\/a><\/blockquote> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That they are seriously thinking about him in the national team was also confirmed by Nemanja Jovanovi\u0107, a member of the coaching staff of Serbia and an associate of Du\u0161an Alimpijevi\u0107.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;We are following Milan Mom\u010dilovi\u0107 and we would like him to play for the national team of Serbia in the future,&#8221; Jovanovi\u0107 said recently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mom\u010dilovi\u0107 is thus slowly becoming one of the most interesting names of Serbian basketball in America, and many believe that the next season could completely launch him toward the NBA league and the Serbia jersey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><mark style=\"background-color:#FFFFFF;color:#d21414\" class=\"has-inline-color\">MORE TOPICS:<\/mark><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/obradovic-received-an-insulting-offer-the-athens-club-is-ready-to-set-aside-10-million-for-the-return-of-the-serbian-expert\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">OBRADOVI\u0106 RECEIVED AN \u201cIMPOSSIBLE\u201d OFFER: The Athens club is ready to set aside 10 million for the return of the Serbian expert!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/parliament-of-montenegro-made-a-decision-the-castle-in-podgorica-returned-to-the-descendants-of-the-petrovic-njegos-dynasty\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">PARLIAMENT OF MONTENEGRO MADE A DECISION: The castle in Podgorica returned to the descendants of the Petrovi\u0107-Njego\u0161 dynasty!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/voice-of-the-youth-from-kula-it-is-possible-that-the-sns-carried-out-fraud-during-the-vote-counting-an-investigation-has-been-launched-regarding-the-defectors\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">VOICE OF THE YOUTH FROM KULA: It is possible that the SNS carried out fraud during the vote counting, an investigation has been launched regarding the \u201cdefectors\u201d!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/trump-presents-the-nominations-here-is-who-the-new-american-ambassadors-to-serbia-and-bih-will-be\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">TRUMP PRESENTS THE NOMINATIONS: Here is who the new American ambassadors to Serbia and BiH will be!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/bez-tebe-nema-ni-nas-proglas-okuplja-dijasporu-u-nemackoj-bjela-kesic-i-manjifiko-u-frankfurtu-minhenu-i-stutgartu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">\u201cWITHOUT YOU THERE IS NO US\u201d: ProGlas gathers the diaspora in Germany, Bjela, Kesi\u0107 and Magnifico in Frankfurt, Munich and Stuttgart!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/as-long-as-i-am-alive-i-will-fight-for-my-children-milica-75-guards-and-takes-care-of-her-two-immobile-sons-in-a-remote-village-near-prijepolje\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">\u201cAS LONG AS I AM ALIVE I WILL FIGHT FOR MY CHILDREN\u201d: Milica (75) guards and takes care of her two immobile sons in a remote village near Prijepolje!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Source<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kurir.rs\/sport\/kosarka\/10011525\/milan-momcilovic-novi-igrac-kentakija\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Kurir<\/a>; <strong>Photo<\/strong>: Iowa State Daily<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After weeks of speculation, negotiations, and a real bidding war among the most powerful programs of the NCAA league, Milan Mom\u010dilovi\u0107 decided to wear the Kentucky jersey.
