Boban Marjanovic Signs In Familiar Place

Boban is back. Every NBA fan’s favorite friendly giant, and every NBA player’s favorite teammate, Boban Marjanovich has re-signed with the Houston Rockets for the 2023-24 season.

Some are wondering (tongue in cheek) if a recent Instagram photo Boban posted of himself looking quite jacked is what convinced the Rockets to pull the trigger.

The 7’4” Marjanovic spent last season with Houston, and was beloved by everyone in the locker room. His contributions off the floor outweigh those on it, as he appeared in just 31 games off the bench and played just 5.5 minutes in those contests, averaging 3.3 points and 1.9 rebounds.

He’s entering his ninth NBA season, and has also spent time in San Antonio, Detroit, Los Angeles (Clippers), Philadelphia and Dallas.
