Dasher UGA Sports: Georgia lands Serbian-born, Rivals150 point guard Savo Drezgic
“The sharp-shooting point guard made an official visit to Georgia in May and spoke to Rivals on the way to the recent Adidas 3SSB stop in Birmingham, Alabama.
“I liked it,” Drezgic, who played professionally in Serbia before landing in the United States just this year. “I really liked it a lot. They just showed me around and we talked and all of that.”
One of the top international prospects in his class, Drezgic has been in the United States for a year and plays for Florida’s DME Academy.
Per Rivals’ Rob Cassidy, Drezgic, “Is a true point guard that is known for his facilitation skills as well his long-range shooting.”
He’s also considered a gifted passer capable of creating his own shot. He is the No. 106 player in the nation.
Drezgic becomes the ninth newcomer to join the Bulldogs since the end of the season.”

Cassidy Rivals.com: Commitment alert: Georgia lands Serbian PG Savo Drezgic
“Drezgic has been in the United States for less than a year and spent the last few months splitting time between American grassroots ball and playing for the Serbian National Team in his native country. What’s been clear about his game during his time in the States, however, is his advanced floor vision and impressive passing ability, two traits that may allow him to see early playing time in the SEC. Drezgic still has some adjustments to make when it comes to physicality and becoming a more consistent shooter, but his motor and facilitation skills should excite Bulldog fans. When Drezgic is going well, he can fill it up from behind the arc. He’s proven that much, but calling him a streaky shooter seems fair at this juncture. The muscular, 6-foot-3 point guard has impressive positional size that will serve him well in the American college game, especially when it comes to getting to his spots and absorbing contact. Defensively, his size and impressive motor give him intriguing upside, which will serve him well as a multi-year college player.”
