Partizan

Assistant to Vladislav Lučić

During summer 1985, Vujošević returned to Partizan organization, becoming assistant to the newly arrived head coach Vladislav Lučić. At the pre-season training camp on Mount Zlatibor, Vujošević contracted

that kept him away from the first team. Even after recovering, he spent most of the season dealing with the club's junior and cadet squads.

Lučić got fired in December 1986 and his assistant Vujošević took over as head coach on an interim basis. Taking over the squad where some of the players were older than him, young Vujošević set about stamping his authority on the team. Guided by the 27-year-old Vujošević, the squad gelled well with talented youngsters being mentored by the more experienced roster players — Paspalj by Goran Grbović, Divac by Milenko Savović, and Đorđević by Željko Obradović.

Vujošević's team went ahead in the series, winning the opening game on its home court at Hala sportova. In game 2 on Red Star's home court at Hala Pionir, Partizan beat Vlade Ðurović's team again in a tense contest with many lead changes that was decided by Goran Grbović's three-pointer 23 seconds before the end that put ''crno-beli'' two points ahead and later Zoran Radović's failure to convert both free-throws. The game ended 88–89 and Partizan won the series 2-0 as well as the Yugoslav League title, its 4th overall and first for young head coach Vujošević who was only 28 years of age.

1987–88: European Champions Cup Final Four run and losing the Yugoslav League playoff final
