His professional career began at Serbian club Vojvodina, with subsequent moves to Italy’s Piacenza, Japan’s Hiroshima Thunders, and Turkish sides Halkbank and Fenerbahce.
Internationally, Luburic has been a regular contributor for Serbia, helping secure titles in the 2016 FIVB World League and the 2019 European Championship. He also played at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.
