Slavko Vraneš

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Vladimir "Slavko" Vraneš (born January 30, 1983 in Pljevlja, Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia) is a Montenegrian professional basketball player. At 7'7" (2.29 m), he is one of the tallest players ever. Vraneš was selected by the New York Knicks in the second round of the 2003 NBA Draft. In the American professional league, he has played just one game – during the 2003-04 NBA season for the Portland Trail Blazers, missing a field goal attempt and drawing a foul in three minutes. He is currently one of the key players of Budućnost from Podgorica in Montenegro, the same team for whom he was playing before entering the 2003 NBA Draft.

Vraneš broke his foot on a training April 13, 2006. Before the injury, he was the best shot blocker of the Serbia and Montenegro league with 6 blocks per game.
