From the pros to BYU and now back to the pros, Mihailo Boskovic joined Kevin Young's BYU basketball program years ago with the respect of international excellence already on his resume. The Serbian product joined the BYU basketball program after having earned U20 FIBA World Championship MVP honors with his national team.

He entered college basketball as a junior, thanks to his advanced age of 22 years, and made an immediate impact on BYU basketball, helping bolster the lineup around an incoming 5-star point guard from Russia, Egor Demin, and finished his senior season in a diminished, yet significant role on Kevin Young's depth chart alongside AJ Dybantsa, Richie Saunders, and Robert Wright III.

Turning the chapter since his final season of college eligibility, Boskovic is joining BC Megabasket, a member of the Serbian ABA Lige.

Clearly, the NBA wasn't in the cards for Boskovic, who originally joined BYU basketball after working out with the Sacramento Kings back in 2022, before ultimately withdrawing his name from the process and exploring the increasingly popular collegiate route.

A power forward capable of spacing the floor and providing energy off the bench, Boskovic's career as a pro will be off to an inauspicious beginning, as he'll hope to work his way through the Serbian ranks to potentially find a landing spot at a higher level of competition.

We'll always remember his excellent shooting night against Iowa State in the Big 12 Conference Tournament and his incredible last-minute game winner against West Virginia in Morgantown.

A Cougar legend, you're always welcome back in Provo, Mihailo.
