Career: Zeleznik (Yugoslavia-YUBA, 2001-05), Dynamo Moscow (Russia-Superleague, 2005-06).

The unofficial MVP of this year's ULEB Cup Finals in the jersey of Dynamo Moscow. Dynamo coach Dusan Ivkovic knew what he was doing when he signed the young playmaker for his star-packed team: Bojan paid him back by posting 17 points in the final, while going perfect from the field. A ruthless fighter who makes no compromises, Popovic is a product of the renowned Zeleznik basketball school.

A great defender and hustler, he is somewhat weaker on the offensive side of the ball. However, Bojan's mental toughness makes up for his offensive deficiencies, making him the perfect backup point guard. With no experience for the national team, his biggest rival for making the final 12 squad will be Vule Avdalovic.
