On Thursday, the Rockets made the signing of Boban Marjanovic for one more season. The contract is only partially guaranteed, but in Houston, we wanted the Serbian to remain on the squad. Both for his qualities as a basketball player, but also for his human qualities. Wherever he went, the giant was unanimously acclaimed!
“Above all, Boban is a good basketball player” recalled GM Rafael Stone. “He does what he does at a high level. He has always been a great rebounder on both ends of the court. He’s a real presence on both sides of the pitch, and from that point of view, he brings us a real change of pace. NBA seasons are long, people have down shots, people get injured, and we want to make sure we have a well-rounded team. »
All teams would benefit from having a Marjanovic in their squad
Second in the vote for the sportsmanship trophy, Marjanovic always has a smile on the field, and his experience and good humor are important in the Houston squad.
“Besides, Boban is one of the best people you can be around. I think all teams benefit from having people on them who make them happy and everything else.” continues Stone. “But to be clear, we’re signing him as a basketball player. He is such an exceptional person that we sometimes lose sight of that. That’s why we’re happy he’s back. »
