Nenad Krstic

Nenad Krstic was drafted by the New Jersey Nets in 2002, but he didn’t join the team until the 2004-05 season. Krstic’s longest and most notable stint in the NBA was with the Nets, averaging 11.3 points per game and 5.7 rebounds per game. His tenure with the Nets ended with disappointment and lack of confidence that affected his play after suffering a left knee injury.

Krstic represented Serbia at the 2004 Athens Olympics, averaging 5.2 points per game and 3.2 rebounds per game. His best game came in an 85-62 win over Angola in the final round, during which he scored 15 points and grabbed 12 rebounds.
