Nikola Vasić (Serbian Cyrillic: Никола Васић, born September 15, 1984) is a Serbian retired professional basketball player.
Career
Being a product of FMP's youth system, Nikola has passed through all of the club's ranks, as a top player. After playing in the youth and the second team, he was loaned to Borac Čačak, then an FMP's affiliate.
Following a season of playing at FMP as a starting shooting guard, Nikola moved to Spain, signing a four-year contract with an ACB League side Alicante. After only a year there, he moved to an ambitious Triumph Lyubertsy side, which he left after six months to play only 16 games during a season and a half at Spanish Fuenlabrada.
He spent the following season at then the Ukrainian EuroChallenge representative, Polytekhnika-Halychyna, but appeared in only six matches, due to chronic injury problems in his back. He missed most of the 2009-10 and the whole 2010-11 season recovering from an injury.
In August 2013, he signed with UBC Gussing Knights.[1] He left them before the start of the season and then in November 2013, he signed with Elektra Šoštanj.[2] He parted ways with Elektra in January 2014.[3]
