7'0" center Michael Ružić is giving LSU efficient scoring and a presence on the glass to start the 2026–27 season.

Through his first three regular-season games, the Croatian freshman is averaging 15.7 points and 7.3 rebounds while shooting 77.8% from the field, helping the Tigers open 3–0.

He began with 17 points and six rebounds against LSU New Orleans, then recorded his first regular-season double-double with 12 points, 11 rebounds and two blocks against Texas Southern.

Against Louisiana Tech on November 9, Ružić delivered 18 points, five rebounds and three assists in just 20 minutes.

He has scored in double figures in every game so far, giving LSU consistent production off the bench.

Next up: Gonzaga on November 14.

2008-born Igor Stjepanović scored 20 points in Jadran Motomarine’s 90–71 win over Virtus Padova, the club’s sixth straight victory in Italy’s Serie B Interregionale.

The Slovenian guard shot 5-for-10 from the field, including two threes, and went 8-for-8 at the free throw line.

Also included are highlights from his game with APU Udine U19 the following day.

16-year-old Ilija Radović scored his first ABA League field goal against Partizan this past weekend!

The SC Derby guard added an assist and a steal in three minutes, just five days after leading his team with 25 points against Teodo in Montenegro’s senior league.

This summer, Radović led the FIBA U16 EuroBasket Division B in scoring at 27.6 points per game. He also won Montenegro’s U16, U18 and U20 titles with Budućnost last season and was named MVP of the U16 final tournament.

Another milestone for Ilija, and we can’t wait to see what comes next!

Zylan Cheatham recorded the first triple-double of NBL27 as Adelaide bounced back with a dominant home win.

The 36ers forward finished with 21 points, 12 rebounds and 11 assists in a 106–78 win over the Illawarra Hawks on November 7. He made eight of his 12 field-goal attempts, added two steals and did not commit a turnover in 30:46.

Cheatham helped establish the advantage well before the final margin opened up. By halftime, he had 11 points, six rebounds and seven assists, with Adelaide ahead 49–37. Five of his rebounds came at the offensive end, giving the Sixers more chances to score.

His all-around performance helped bring Adelaide back to 6–6. Next up is Melbourne United at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre on November 12.
