After a stellar break out season in Euroleague, Boban Marjanovic, as expected, is making the next step to his career by leaving Europe for the NBA. According to many reports from Serbia and as Eurohoops can confirm, his next stop will be the Spurs.
The details of the deal are expected to be announced soon, however the player himself in his recent Eurohoops interview spoke about his wish to try the NBA. Meanwhile it was a well known fact around Europe that the player was trying to get a deal in the NBA, as many top clubs tried to lure him after his year with Crvena Zvezda and they were informed about his priority.

Can't say that I know much about him. He's a 26 year old 7'4 Serbian center, apparently he's very slow but also very strong and skilled.
His numbers in the Euroleague were pretty outstanding (16 PPG, 11RPG) and he was named to the All-Euroleague 1st team.
No idea what his contract is going to look like but it looks like we've solved our depth issue at center, now we just need a wing or two.
