Western Canada Redmen’s Nebojsa Kuljic prefers to patrol the perimeter of the attacking zone in hopes of being able to knock down a long-range jumper.
He can make them too on a fairly consistent basis.
“Definitely outside,” said Kuljic when asked where he prefers to play. “I do like to shoot the three, it’s what I’ve done my whole career so far and I’d rather do that, but really, with the motion in the offense we play I’m everywhere on the court and shoot just as many threes as the next guy.”
But his 6’5” frame makes him one of the taller players on the squad, meaning the grade-12 student is usually found deep in the paint battling the opponents big man for hard-earned points and rebounds.
“Nebojsa goes into most games knowing he’s undersized for the position he’s playing, but he absolutely battles in there, and he has to win those battles with his positioning and his intensity,” said Redmen’s head coach Steve Wiebe.
“He’s long and he’s athletic, he gives up a lot of size in the post but he has a huge heart.”
