Noooo! Say it ain’t so!
Boban Marjanovic, a veteran NBA center and one of the coolest guys in the league, has inked a deal with EuroLeague club Fenerbahce (Turkey) after nine campaigns. His agency Excel Sports confirmed the news. (RELATED: Golden State Warriors Have ‘Dreams’ Of Adding Both Giannis Antetokounmpo And Jimmy Butler In The Future: REPORT)
With that being said, his contract does include a player option where he’ll be able to get out of his deal just in case he gets interest from an NBA team, according to a report from ESPN. So you know what that means: We might see Boban back in the NBA in the future! *fingers crossed*
Listed at a whopping 7-foot-4, Marjanovic suited up for six franchises during his time in the NBA, with the past two being for the Houston Rockets. His career stat line was 3.5 points-per-game and 3.6 rebounds-per-game.

Ahh, man…
How is the NBA gonna survive without this?
Boban Marjanović’s last act on an NBA court was to ensure Clippers fans got free chicken sandwiches by bricking two free throws.
