Club playing career

In 1967, Todorić started his playing career in Sloga from his hometown Kraljevo. While competing for young Yugoslav national team he drew attention from several Yugoslav top clubs, including Partizan fierce rivals, Crvena zvezda. Eventually, he chose to sign for Partizan in 1972, and remained in the first team until 1983. During this period he played 363 official games, which puts him at 6th place of Partizan hall of fame list by number of played games. Before finishing his career in 1985, he played for OKK Belgrade (known as OKK Beko at the time) and again for Sloga. As Partizan player he won three state championships (in 1976, 1979 and 1981) one Yugoslav Cup (1979) and two Korać Cups (1978 and 1979).

He was also on the squad that won gold at the 1972 European Championship for Juniors in Zadar.
