Happy 45th Birthday To Super Darko Rajakovic See More…
Just earlier this year, the Toronto Raptors named Darko Rajakovic as the 10th head coach of the franchise. Coming all the way from Serbia, Rajakovic has plenty of experience in the NBA after serving as an assistant coach for various NBA teams such as the Oklahoma City Thunder, Phoenix Suns and the Memphis Grizzlies.
In his coaching debut, Rajakovic will be expected to guide the Raptors back to being a championship contender after the franchise’s first NBA title in 2019.
But while Rajakovic will have his work cut out for him, the NBA coach has plenty of love and support from his wife and family. Let’s get to know Darko Rajakovic’s wife Gaga Rajakovic.
Darko Rajakovic’s wife is Gaga Rajakovic. Despite being the wife of the Toronto Raptors head coach, Gaga has kept her life out of the eyes of the public.
As a result, little to no information is known about Gaga Rajakovic. However, we do know that she was born on Oct. 31 in Serbia after the Raptors coach greeted her on his social media platform.
Darko first met Gaga around the year of 1996. Darko met his wife-to-be as a teenager in his youth basketball camp that he held in his hometown in Serbia. According to a report by TSN, the Rajakovic couple first met when Gaga’s little brother participated in the NBA coach’s basketball camp.
The couple eventually married in a ceremony that at least 400 family and friends attended. Fast-forward to today, the Rajakovic couple has been married for nearly a decade, according to a report by the NBA.
Since tying the knot, the couple has raised a wonderful son together. They named their son Luka, who is now 5 years old.
Although being a wife of a NBA coach isn’t easy, Gaga has shown tremendous support for the Raptors head coach. In fact, according to sources, Gaga and Luka were in attendance during Darko’s introduction as head coach for the franchise.
Moreover, she could also be spotted in the Raptors’ games. This probably played a big role as to how Darko was in a tremendously great mood for his hiring, as claimed by Yahoo News, despite the pressures that come with coaching a team that wants to regain championship relevancy.
Furthermore, moving away from your home country isn’t an easy task for many. However, for Gaga, it seems to be becoming an easy transition, even with little sleep. In fact, the Raptors head coach revealed that his wife told him that Toronto has been the best city she’s ever been to.
