Boban Marjanovic, the NBA's answer to the mythical Kraken

In 15 meaningful minutes, the 7'3 Serbian was perfect from the floor, grabbed four rebounds, got a steal and a block -- and made sure the Spurs stayed perfect at home.

With Tim Duncan resting for a second consecutive game, Gregg Popovich unleashed the Boban in a regular season game against the Minnesota Timberwolves and it was glorious.

Boban Marjanovic -- the NBA equivalent of the mythical Kraken that devours ships whole -- is a devastating force unlike the NBA has seen. He's a lumbering 7-foot-3, with the touch of a point guard around the rim, the IQ of a whipsmart basketball player and long arms that deter opponents from even messing around in his vicinity.
