My Take

Boban Marjanovic is one of the most lovable giants in basketball, and at 7-foot-4 he is impossible to miss. The Serbian big man has bounced around the NBA, but what I appreciate is how he turned a limited bench role into something special, those absurd per-minute rebounding numbers are no fluke. He came up as a 2007 junior world champion and earned his shot the long way through Europe. Off the court his cameos in the John Wick films, towering over Keanu Reeves, were inspired casting. He plays the game with obvious joy, and that's exactly why fans adore him wherever he goes.

Overview

Boban Marjanović (Serbian Cyrillic: Бобан Марјановић; born August 15, 1988) is a Serbian professional basketball player for the Ilirija of the Slovenian League and the ABA League. He represented the Serbian national team in international competition. A 2007 junior world champion, Marjanović played abroad in Russia and Lithuania between 2010 and 2012 before making his breakthrough in his home country.
