Toroman, who has served as the assistant coach from 1991-1995 of the Yugoslavia national basketball team that featured players such as Predrag Danilović, Vlade Divac, and Dejan Bodiroga, has said that Vučićević"s performance in the 2010 International Basketball Federation Asia Champions Cup will be the team"s basis if they will consider him to become a naturalized Filipino.
