Career highlights and awards

Dejan Musli (Serbian Cyrillic: Дејан Мусли; born January 3, 1991) is a Serbian professional basketball player for Unicaja of the Liga ACB. Standing at 7 ft 0 in (2.13 m), he plays at the center position.

In the youth Musli won the Euroleague Basketball Nike International Junior Tournament twice with FMP dominating in the paint and winning MVP awards, which made him one of the most promising young players of his generation. In January 2009, Musli signed his first professional four-year contract with FMP, team where he spent previous 2 seasons at the junior level. In the summer of 2009, he won with his team the 2009 EuroLeague's NIJT junior tournament, after defeating the Lithuanian Lietuvos rytas. He scored 31 points and grabbed 17 rebounds in the final game, while also guarding Jonas Valančiūnas who scored 22 points. Despite being one of the most promising European players, in March 2010 Musli decided not to enter the 2010 NBA Draft.

On September 22, 2010, Musli signed a five-year contract with the Spanish team Caja Laboral. In first season with the team, he saw very little playing time, also having played only two games in his first EuroLeague season.

In February 2011, Musli was loaned to the Italian team Montegranaro until the end of season, but was quickly sent back due to concerns about his poor work ethic and questionable attitude. Officially, he didn't play any game for Montegranaro due to illness. In October 2011 he was loaned on one-month assignment to the Spanish side Fuenlabrada, in order to return his game shape.
