SALTY DOG

NBA ROLE: INTERIOR SCORER/REBOUNDER

Big Boban Marjanovic is intimidating – standing at 7’4, 290, his presence alone serves to both alter shots in the paint/clog the lane & corral boards; noble skills down low (helps when you can dunk by barely jumping!), especially on the left side – Boban features a solid, one-handed push shot (can get looks off v. almost any kind of defensive pressure), has a light touch near the basket; passes pretty well out of the post, doesn't force it; can palm anything; racks up numbers* v. mismatches, though also loses time v. smaller lineups; needs more opportunity?very productive when summoned (10-15 minutes or less depending on the matchup) – Boban’s an ‘ace in the hole’ for any squad he’s on; stable, veteran big in Houston
