Nikola Jokić, Bogdan Bogdanović, Boban Marjanović and Vasilije Micić are current NBA players, as well as Nikola Jović, Aleksej Pokuševski and Tristan Vukčević (not pictured).

The following is a list of Serbian basketball players that play or have played in the National Basketball Association (NBA).

Center Vlade Divac and forward Žarko Paspalj were the first Serbian players to play in the NBA, in the 1989–90 season. In 2004, Darko Miličić became the first basketball player from Serbia to win an NBA championship. Since then, Predrag Stojaković, Ognjen Kuzmić, Nemanja Bjelica, and Nikola Jokić won the league in 2011, 2015, 2022, and 2023, respectively.

Nikola Jokić is the Serbian player with most NBA honours and is the first Serb, and only the third European, to win the NBA Most Valuable Player Award. In 2022, Jokić was named the NBA MVP for the second year in a row, becoming the 13th player to win the award in consecutive seasons, as well as the second European player to win the award more than once, joining Giannis Antetokounmpo. [1] In 2023, he became the first Serbian to be named Finals MVP. [2]

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nikola Jokić, Bogdan Bogdanović, Boban Marjanović and Vasilije Micić are current NBA players, as well as Nikola Jović, Aleksej Pokuševski and Tristan Vukčević (not pictured).

The following is a list of Serbian basketball players that play or have played in the National Basketball Association (NBA).

Center Vlade Divac and forward Žarko Paspalj were the first Serbian players to play in the NBA, in the 1989–90 season. In 2004, Darko Miličić became the first basketball player from Serbia to win an NBA championship. Since then, Predrag Stojaković, Ognjen Kuzmić, Nemanja Bjelica, and Nikola Jokić won the league in 2011, 2015, 2022, and 2023, respectively.

Nikola Jokić is the Serbian player with most NBA honours and is the first Serb, and only the third European, to win the NBA Most Valuable Player Award. In 2022, Jokić was named the NBA MVP for the second year in a row, becoming the 13th player to win the award in consecutive seasons, as well as the second European player to win the award more than once, joining Giannis Antetokounmpo. [1] In 2023, he became the first Serbian to be named Finals MVP. [2]
