Journalism on Display: SC Featured on The Man, The Myth, The Boban

Some feel that Mavs center Boban Marjanovic might be the most beloved player in the NBA. Preview this feature debuting on SportsCenter Sunday morning

Sunday’s “SC Featured” segment on SportsCenter will explore the story of Boban Marjanovic, a Serbian who plays for the NBA’s Dallas Mavericks.

Some feel that “Boban” might be the most beloved player in the league, whether it’s his 7-foot, 4-inch height, his outgoing personality, his work ethic – or his hilarious impersonation of Lurch from “The Addams Family” TV show saying, “You rang?” Gavin Cote produced the feature, which was reported by Sam Borden. It will debut in the 8 a.m. ET edition of SportsCenter.
