An early entry candidate for the 2016 NBA Draft.

Career Highlights: Impressed in FIBA junior national team play over the summer of 2015. Helped the Croatian U19 team capture silver at the 2015 U19 World Championships. Finished third in the tournament in scoring (17.9 ppg) and seventh in rebounding (7.9). In Croatia’s first matchup with the U.S., posted 12 points, 13 rebounds and three blocks in 38 minutes, shooting 6-of-13 from the field in the loss. Helped limit the U.S. to 36.7 shooting, providing rim protection to help contain stars Harry Giles and Jayson Tatum to 9-of-35 shooting. Exploded in a win over Canada with 19 points on 9-of-11 shooting along with six boards. In the title game, a rematch with the U.S., contributed 12 points on 6-of-9 shooting along with four rebounds and zero fouls in just 18 minutes of play. At the 2015 U18 European Championship later that summer, ranked first in the tournament in rebounds (12.9 rpg), blocked shots (3.0 bpg) and double-doubles (6), and eighth in scoring (15.8 ppg).

2015-16: Left his Croatian team Cibona over a financial dispute midway through the season after play-ing five games in the Adriatic League and two in the FIBA Europe Cup to start the campaign. In his five games in the Adriatic League with Cibona this season, averaged 6.8 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.2 blocks in 13.0 minutes per game, while shooting 57.7 percent from the field. In two FIBA Europe Cup contests with Cibona, contributed 12.0 points and 6.0 rebounds over 20.0 minutes per game, while shooting 11-of-15 (.733) from the field. Signed with the Serbian team Mega Leks in February after he was unable to transfer to Croatian club Cedevita

2014-15: Played six games with Cibona in the Adriatic League, averaging 5.3 points and 2.2 rebounds in 10.5 minutes per game. Converted 14-of-17 field goals. Made 24 appearances combined with Cibona and Velika Gorica in Croatia’s top domestic league, and notched 7.1 points, 3.7 rebounds and 0.8 blocks in 14.7 minutes per outing. Shot 67.0 percent from the field. Suffered a stress fracture in his foot in 2014.

Strengths: Has excellent size and a good strength for his age. A good rebounder and shotblocker. Defends the lane well. Offensively, he is able to finish around the rim and has shown some promise playing with his back to the basket.

EARLY ENTRY CANDIDATE HISTORY

Following a lawsuit filed by Spencer Haywood, the NBA was required by the courts to grant admission to underclassmen even though their college classes had not gradu-ated. Accordingly, in 1971 the league held a separate draft for underclassmen wish-ing to enter the NBA who displayed financial hardship. Beginning in 1972, such players were included in the regular NBA draft. In 1976, the hardship requirement was elim-inated and the current Early Entry procedure was adopted whereby any athlete with remaining college eligibility who desires to enter the NBA Draft may do so by renounc-ing his college eligibility in a letter to the Commissioner postmarked 45 days before the draft.
