Fighting Hawks Add Serbian Forward with Pro Experience

(UND Sports Information) – GRAND FORKS, N.D. – University of North Dakota men’s basketball Head Coach Paul Sather announced the addition of forward Andrija Radojevic (pronounced An-dree-a Rad-o-ee-vich) on Tuesday.

Radojevic comes to North Dakota after playing multiple professional seasons in Serbia, most recently with Mladost SP.

“Andrija is a great fit for us and we love how he competes and impacts winning,” said Sather. “He’s a skilled big that’s comfortable attacking the rim or playing with skill and stretching the floor. The energy and activity Andrija plays with jumps off the screen and he fits perfectly with how we defend. We expect him to make an immediate impact in our program.”

A native of Kruševac, Serbia, Radojevic averaged 10.7 points and 4.0 rebounds per game on 57.4% from the field, 27.8% from three and 84.5% from the free throw line across 29 games and 20.4 minutes per contest with Mladost SP this past season. He scored in double figures 18 times, totaling 20 points twice, last done on Dec. 28, 2025 against Sloven when he shot 8-for-11 from the field with eight rebounds.

While spending this past season with Mladost SP, the 6-foot-8 forward participated in the 2. MLS (muška liga Srbije), which is the second-tier professional men’s basketball league in Serbia.

Prior to Mladost SP, Radojevic spent two seasons in the KLS, the top-tier basketball league in Serbia. He played the 2023-24 season with KK Mladost Admiral Zemun and split the 2024-25 season between KK Mladost Admiral Zemun and KK Joker Sombor. He compiled a total of 38 games between the two seasons and two teams, logging a 55.6 field goal percentage in 2024-25 across 21 games.

Radojevic has experience at the FIBA level, participating with Serbia in the 2021 FIBA U18 European Challengers Tournament. He appeared in three games for Serbia and averaged 2.7 points per game across 10.6 minutes of action. Serbia went 2-1 in the tournament in games that Radojevic played in with wins over Germany and Georgia.

The KLS has produced several high-level NBA players, headlined by names such as Nikola Jokic (2012-15), Boban Marjanovic (2012-15), Goga Bitadze (2015-19), Bogdan Bogdanovic (2011-14) and Nikola Jovic (2021-22). Former UND player Filip Rebraca currently plays in the KLS.
