The NBA always had many international superstars coming in and dominating the league. Players like Nikola Jokic and Giannis Antetokounmpo have won regular-season MVP awards in the past while Luka Doncic is always in conversation for the prestigious title. In 2023 we might have yet another international basketball athlete coming into the league from Sweden – Bobi Klintman.

6’10'' Klintman has an impressive blend of athleticism, size, length, and versatility. This boasts Klintman’s chances in the 2023 NBA draft and unsurprisingly will land as the top foreign prospect of the class. Playing a forward position, Klintman took basketball lessons from RIG Mark Academy in Sweden.

Klintman played in the Australian basketball league and also a year in the States with Wake Forest Demon Deacons. Klintman also represented the national side in the 2022 FIBA U20 European Championship Division B. Let us go through Bobi Klintman’s family to know more about the future star.

Bobi Klintman's parents

Bobi Klintman’s biological parents are separated, while his “step father” took him under his wings. His father was a basketball player and head coach which helped Bobi a lot in developing his game. Bobi recalled that he started playing basketball because of his stepdad at the age of four, while he took the game seriously at the age of 8.

In an interview given to a European channel, Bobi informed, "My dad played a little bit overseas in Spain so he brought me into the game. My brother also played basketball so we were competitive with each other and then I just kept practicing and fell in love with the game and just kept going."

Bobi is a great offensive forward with the capability to make plays for others also. Although he might not be a lockdown defender, Bobi is possess adequate defensive qualities. Klintman is also a decent long-range shooter, to which he credits his father again.

Bobi had offers from San Francisco, Nebraska, Texas, Santa Clara, Arkansas, Virginia, and Utah. Playing for the Wake Forest Demon Deacons, Klintman averaged 5.3 points and 4.5 rebounds in 33 games played as a freshman.
