Aleksandar Radojević (Serbian Cyrillic: Александар Радојевић, /rəˈdɔɪ.əvɪtʃ/; born August 8, 1976) is a former professional basketball player. Standing at 2.21 m (7 ft 3 in), he plays the center position.
Radojević was born in either Herceg Novi, or Bijela,Montenegro, or Trebinje, in Bosnia and Herzegovina, all in the now former Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. He only started playing basketball at age 16 after playing football and water polo as a youngster.
He started his career with Cetinje outfit KK Lovćen where he spent the 1995–96 season. For the next 1996–97 season he moved to Budućnost Podgorica where he sporadically played a certain amount of games.
A 7 ft 3 in center, he signed a national letter of intent to play for Ohio State University's prestigious Buckeyes in the early part of 1997. Radojevic never played for Ohio State because the NCAA declared him ineligible for accepting around $9,000 (or $13,000) to play for Budućnost in 1996. He thus ended up at a much less glamorous basketball programme of Barton County Community College where he spent the next two seasons.
