TULSA, Okla. – The Oral Roberts men's basketball program and Head Coach
Kory Barnett have announced the addition of transfer sophomore forward Marko Pavlovic to the 2026-27 roster.
"Marko brings a competitive edge you can't teach," said Coach Barnett. "He's a proven winner with high-level character, and his playmaking ability at his size makes him uniquely versatile. He finishes efficiently, rebounds at a high level, and impacts the game on both ends of the floor with his physical presence. We expect him to make an immediate impact on our program."
From Bar, Montenegro, Pavlovic transfers to the Golden Eagles from Missouri Western State University, where he spent his freshman season.
As a freshman, he averaged 12.3 points, 7.2 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.4 blocks per game. He reached double-figures in 19 games, scoring 20 or more points five times. He scored a career-high 22 points against Arkansas-Fort Smith, grabbed 13 rebounds at Nebraska-Kearney and dished out seven assists at Newman.
Pavlovic attended Sunrise Christian Academy, earning a Heartland Christian Athletic Association All-State selection in each of his final two years of high school. He averaged 11.7 points, 7.5 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 1.4 blocks and 1.1 steals per game during his senior year. He also played for the Montenegrin U18 National Team.
He is the son of Ivica and Mirjana Pavlovic and has a sister, Sara Pavlovic.
