He averaged 3.5 points and 3.8 rebounds in 15.7 minutes per game across 18 games with KK Partizan and KK Metalac Valjevo in Serbia this season. Dimitrijević, who will turn 19 in late May, competed for Serbia at the 2024 U18 Euro Championship when he was 17. He averaged 10.4 points, 7.1 rebounds, 2.7 blocks and 2.1 assists while shooting 51.1% from the field in seven games as Serbia won the silver medal.
Dimitrijević visited Michigan, Creighton and Illinois in February before committing to the Jays. His addition pushes Creighton basketball’s roster total to 12, leaving the staff with up to three more spots to fill, and fills the void at back-up center left by Fredick King’s departure.
