Next Up Canada: New Mexico Commit Jovan Milicevic just wants to win

One of the most polished Prospects coming out of Canada, Jovan Milicevic has all the tools to make an instant impact at the Division 1 level. Great size for position as a 6’10 Forward. Has an extremely serviceable skillset with his ability to catch and shoot at a high level, or operate both as a scorer and playmaker out of the mid-post. Strong intangibles: work ethic, character, bball IQ, will to win.

Jovan’s produced at every level he’s played at. Prep, AAU, Canadian National Team. As we say at NPH, GameSpeaks. Hard to argue with production.

Going into New Mexico, fans can expect a player that works hard, and takes pride in the team he’s representing. With a lovable attitude and personality to match, I can see him being a fan favourite from day 1.
