Robert Rikić (born 29 April 1990) is a Croatian professional basketball player, currently playing as a center for Budućnost VOLI of the Montenegrin League.
Robert started practicing basketball as a 16-year-old due to his extraordinary height, after already becoming an under-16 national handball player for Croatia. After initially working individually with Široki's youth coaches, his first youth club was Dubrovnik, where he stayed for a year before moving to Zagreb. During those first few years of his career, Robert was also an under-18 national team member for Croatia.
