Bogdan Bogdanović (Serbian: Богдан Богдановић, born August 18, 1992) is a Serbian professional basketball player for Fenerbahçe of the Turkish Basketball Super League (BSL). He also represents the Serbian national basketball team. Standing at 6 ft 6 in (1.98 m), he primarily plays at the shooting guard position. He was selected by the Phoenix Suns with the 27th overall pick in the 2014 NBA Draft, with his draft rights being traded to the Sacramento Kings during the 2016 NBA Draft.
Bogdanović began playing organized basketball with KK Zvezdara, a club in Belgrade. In April 2008, he moved on to KK Žitko Basket (then known as Alimenti Basket), also from Belgrade. With Žitko he was part of the team that in April 2010 earned third place in the 2009–10 Serbian junior league at the final eight tournament in Vršac, after beating Partizan Belgrade juniors in the quarterfinal, losing 89-86 to Hemofarm juniors in the semifinal and beating FMP Železnik junior team 82-76 in the third place game.
A few weeks later in May 2010, together with another Žitko player Luka Pajković, Bogdanović got attached to FMP's junior team featuring Nenad Miljenović, Stefan Popovski-Turanjanin, Nemanja Bezbradica, Nikola Janković, and Nikola Silađi for the Nike International Junior Tournament (NIJT) in Paris where the Železnik juniors were defending their club's double title from previous two years. They were drawn in one of two round-robin groups at the tournament, alongside KK Split, Treviso, and Málaga. After beating Treviso and Split, FMP required a win over Málaga juniors to win their group and make the final; with precisely Bogdanović making the difference with an off-balance buzzer-beater for a 79-78 final score, two of his 21 points on the day alongside 6 rebounds. In the final game FMP took on INSEP and lost 73–83 with Bogdanović having an outing to forget due to the mid-game injury that forced him to leave the contest.
