Wednesday morning, the Houston Rockets announced they have re-signed free agent center Boban Marjanovic to a one-year contract (at veteran minimum of $2.89M). He was originally acquired via a trade with Dallas on June 24, 2022.

Marjanovic (7'4", 286), who is approaching his ninth season, appeared in 31 games for the Rockets in 2022-23 while shooting a career-best 68.3% from the floor. Boban finished runner-up to Mike Conley in voting for the NBA Sportsmanship award last season and was second in voting for the 2021-22 Twyman-Stokes Teammate of the Year Award.

For his career, Boban is averaging 22.9 points and 14.8 rebounds per 36 minutes played. He is one of 14 players listed 7’4” or taller to have played in the NBA and he has the seventh-most career games played of that group, which includes former Rockets Yao Ming, Chuck Nevitt and Ralph Sampson.
