Bogoljub Marković assigned to Milwaukee Bucks G League affiliate

Serbian basketball player Bogoljub Marković has been assigned to the Wisconsin Herd, the Milwaukee Bucks' G League affiliate, to gain more playing time and experience.

Marković, the former Adriatic League MVP, previously made his NBA debut in five minutes against the Houston Rockets, recording two points and one rebound. Due to heavy competition in the Milwaukee frontcourt from players such as Kyle Kuzma, Keon Ellis, and Nate Ament, the decision was made to send the young forward center to the developmental league.

Marković has already begun playing for the Herd, recently contributing nine points, three rebounds, and two assists in a victory over the Iowa Wolves. He signed a four-year contract with the Milwaukee Bucks valued at 9.3 million dollars after being selected as the 47th pick in the previous NBA draft.
