SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — For Dejan Milojević, the Golden State Warriors and Atlanta Hawks stood united on one sideline near their team benches and listened as the Serbian national anthem played in his honor. Golden State returned to the court for the first time since losing its beloved assistant coach last week in Salt Lake City. Two members of the Hawks were right next to Warriors coach Steve Kerr as he spoke of Milojević's profound impact on every person he encountered. Hawks assistant coach Igor Kokoskov was the Serbian national team coach and hired Milojević onto his staff. Obviously different from the Warriors team and all of their players, coaches, and their organization but, being Serbian there’s a unique connection that those guys have in this instance.”___
