The NBA postponed Wednesday's contest between the Golden State Warriors and Utah Jazz due to a medical emergency involving Warriors assistant coach Dejan Milojevic.

Milojevic was hospitalized Tuesday night after an incident at a private team dinner in Utah, the Warriors announced Wednesday.

The date for the rescheduled contest will be announced at a later time.

Golden State hired Milojevic in 2021, and he helped the franchise win a championship in 2022.

Before joining the Warriors, the 46-year-old spent his entire coaching career in Europe, primarily with Mega Basket in Serbia. Several of his players were drafted into the NBA, most notably two-time MVP Nikola Jokic.
