Zlovaric focused on two

Although three-star forward Drazen Zlovaric spent the summer playing for the Serbian 18-under National Team, he was not out of sight, out of mind with college coaches. In fact, Zlovaric, 6-foot-8, 205-pounds from Weston (Fla.) Sagemont High School, has two official visits coming up.

He will officially visit Georgia on August 30 and then the next Thursday head to Texas for an official visit. Both schools are at the top of his list according to Sagemont head coach Adam Ross.

"Georgia and Texas are his leaders," said Ross. "He also has an unofficial visit to Florida on September 17. They haven't offered, though. I know they are waiting to see what happens with a couple other players. Arkansas, Maryland and Ole Miss are also on his list and have offered as have Georgia and Texas."

A skilled, finesse player in the mold of a Euro-style big man, Zlovaric is focused on building his body this fall.

"Drazen is really, really skilled," said Ross. "He has great athleticism and great feet and hands. He does need to shoot the ball a little better. Right now he is just an okay shooter. But he is explosive on the dribble and can get by his man.

"He got back from Serbia two weeks ago and we are working hard in the weight room to build up his body."

Zlovaric has a teammate Garvin Hunt who also has a couple visits on the docket. The 6-foot-9, 225-pound center will visit Delaware on August 30 and then travel to Penn on September 6. Fordham, UMass, George Mason, Tulane and Louisiana Tech have also offered Hunt and are in the mix.

Hunt spent the summer playing for the Bahamian Senior National Team.

"Garvin's improvement has been steady," said Ross. "He's only been playing since the ninth grade, so the more he plays, the better he gets. It might take a little time, but he is going to be a good college player.
