Tepić won both the 2006 and 2007 FIBA Europe Under-20 Championship gold medals with the Serbian national under age 20 team in 2006 and he then developed into a key member of Partizan's team at the Euroleague level. A favorite of Coach Dusan Ivkovic, Tepic has a wide range of offensive skills which he uses to good effect. As a combo guard-point forward he is a solid shooter and passer.
He is also a good decision maker and he doesn't jack up three point shots unless his feet are set for shooting. He is also a smart player at the defensive end, which is something that was recognized by the 2009 Euroleague champions, Panathinaikos, who signed him to a three year deal prior to the 2009-10 season.
Tepić began his career playing with the KK Sports World youth teams in Serbia. He made his professional debut with the Serbian League club Vojvodina Novi Sad in 2002. He moved to the Euroleague club Partizan Belgrade in 2006. He signed a 3 year contract worth €2.5 million euros net income (after taxes and agent's fees are paid) with the Greek League club Panathinaikos in 2009.[1][2][3]
