FAYETTEVILLE — The Arkansas men's basketball team has added Bosnian big man Elmir Dzafic, according to a report from ESPN's Jonathan Givony.
The 7-foot, 19-year-old played for KK Bosna Sarajevo in the Adriatic League Second Division this past season, averaging 2.2 points and 1.2 rebounds.
Dzafic is the second international prospect the Razorbacks have added this offseason, joining Karin Rtail, who played professionally in Lithuania. Coach John Calipari has signed players with professional experience Eastern Europe in the past, the most recent example being Zvonimir Ivisic, who has since transferred to Illinois.
"I'm happy he's played against older players," Calipari said of Rtail prior to his One Razorback Roadshow appearance in Little Rock on May 14.
