Boban Marjanovic is many things, but this season proved he was these three things above the rest: He’s a behemoth of a human, he might be the most likable player in the entire NBA, and he is a very talented big man the Mavericks deployed in certain mismatches.
In 44 games (five starts) Marjanovic averaged nearly seven points and five rebounds while playing almost 10 minutes per game. While his playing time was highly situational, his production on a per-36 basis was almost otherworldly contributing 25 points and 17 rebounds per 36 minutes.
