Basketball players and figures associated with Crvena zvezda have shared various reflections on the club and professional life. Marko Gudurić, currently playing for Olimpia Milano, confirmed that there were discussions regarding a potential return to Crvena zvezda last year, though a deal was not finalized. He expressed a lingering desire to return to the club but emphasized that any future move must depend on his health and ability to perform at his peak.

Gudurić also reflected on the successful era of Crvena zvezda under coach Dejan Radonjić, noting the discipline and sense of belonging fostered by Radonjić’s leadership.

In a separate discussion, NBA player Nikola Vučević commented on the EuroLeague, stating he would have played for Crvena zvezda, Real Madrid, or Olympiacos had his career not been in the NBA. He also praised the club’s recent recruitment and continuity.

Additionally, club captain Ognjen Dobrić addressed the impact of social media criticism on players, noting that teammates like Čima Moneke are particularly sensitive to negative online comments. Meanwhile, former player Ljubodrag "Duci" Simonović recalled the intense atmosphere of playing in the former Yugoslav league, including a physical encounter with a fan in Zadar.
