Dejan Milojević (Serbian Cyrillic: Дејан Милојевић; born April 15, 1977) is a Serbian professional basketball coach and former professional basketball player who played at the power forward position. He also played for the Serbian national basketball team. Milojević is currently serving as a head coach of Mega Leks in the Basketball League of Serbia.

Milojević was born and raised in Belgrade, and started playing basketball for a small team named Beovuk. He was quite a dominant figure while playing in youth leagues, once scoring 131 points in a single game, a still-standing record.

His professional career began in 1998 with a first division club KK FMP from the Belgrade suburb of Železnik. While playing a couple of seasons for a club well known for its working with young players, the 6 ft 7 in Milojević became famous for his blue collar and never-quit style of playing. He averaged a double-double in both of his seasons with FMP, and won the league MVP award in 1999.

In 2000, Milojević moved to KK Budućnost Podgorica in Montenegro, where he won his first national championship in 2001. He spent three more seasons there, improving his skills and his game every year. Already a dominating inside presence, he improved his three-point and free-throw shooting, an area in which he struggled a lot in early years. While in Budućnost he won a couple more league MVP Awards, in 2003 and 2004.

After averaging 20.5 points and 10.8 rebounds per game in 2003–04, his third MVP season, Milojević decided he wanted to play in the EuroLeague against the best players on the continent, so he signed with the three-time defending champion KK Partizan. Although Partizan underachieved in the competition, Milojević was his usual dominant self, averaging 20.8 ppg, 11.5 rpg, and just over 3 steals and assists per game. He was also the key player for Partizan's another title rout in the domestic league, as they lost only one game during the playoffs.
