With Clippers definitely fourth (against the Mavericks in the first round of the playoffs) and them Rockets except for his play in NBAthe matchup in LA was procedural on the final day of the regular season.
THE Boban Marjanovic With 4:44 to go he found himself at the free throw line and missed his first attempt. Then, under the advice of the public, he failed the second one… on purpose. The reason;
At the Clippers court there was a… offer, which stipulated that if a visiting player went 0/2 from the charity stripe, the crowd would enjoy free chicken wings.
The Serbian giant (who shoots 76.4% from the field) obviously knew it, so before taking the second shot he appeared to say “it’s on me“, that is…”I am serving». And by missing, obviously on purpose, on the second shot, he made sure that the Clippers’ friends went home satisfied, even though the team lost 116-105.
He played the entire fourth quarter and finished the game with 13 points, 8 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal and 1 block. The 35-year-old ace averaged 2.5 points and 1.8 rebounds in just 13 games this year and is not under contract for the new season.
Marjanovic is of the most popular players in the NBA because of his figure which can be very imposing, yet he himself is considered among the best guys in the league. That is why he has starred in dozens of commercials, while he has also made cameos in films, such as in one of John Wick.
