The Dallas Mavericks signed Boban Marjanovic to a two-year $7 million contract during the 2019 offseason. The organization planned on a return to the playoffs. Marjanovic is an advanced metrics darling that filled a glaring hole on the Mavs roster.
Let us start with the fact that Bobi is a jovial person with a zest for life. His teammates love him. If would be difficult to find anyone in the Mavericks organization with a bad thing to say about Marjanovic. His presence in the locker room matters. This was his fifth season in the NBA and would have been his third trip to the playoffs.
