UND Basketball Adds Serbian Forward Andrija Radojevic

The Fighting Hawks secure a proven scorer and rebounder from Serbia’s second‑tier league, aiming to deepen their frontcourt for the upcoming season.

The University of North Dakota men’s basketball team has officially signed forward Andrija Radojevic, a 6‑foot‑9 talent who spent the 2024‑25 campaign with Mladost SP in the Serbian second‑division.

Coach Paul Sather praised the newcomer’s work ethic and scoring ability, noting that Radojevic’s skill set should translate well to the Big Sky Conference style of play.

During the 2024‑25 season Radojevic posted a career‑high average of 10.7 points per game while pulling down 4.0 rebounds, and he reached double‑digit scoring on 18 occasions, underscoring his consistency.

A Legacy of Serbian Talent in the Big Sky

Beyond club competition, the forward contributed to Serbia’s run in the 2021 FIBA U18 European Challengers Tournament, where the nation posted a 2‑1 record with him in the lineup.

His background is part of a broader pipeline that has seen Serbian players such as Nikola Jokic and Boban Marjanovic rise to NBA stardom, a trend that UND hopes to tap into.

The arrival of Radojevic not only adds depth to the roster but also signals the university’s ambition to compete more aggressively for conference titles, leveraging international scouting to close the gap with traditional powerhouses.
