The Arizona State Sun Devils men's basketball program, per Weave, has landed Filip Malesevic, a 7-foot-1 Serbian, according to a report.

ASU basketball head coach Randy Bennett talked about building a big front court, and his already tall roster has added the biggest of commitments, according to a report. The Sun Devils , per Weave, have landed Filip Malesevic, a 7-foot-1 Serbian โ€” or 7-2 or 7-3, depending on the site โ€” who is playing professionally for FMP Beograd, for whom he has six points in the past four games while playing between eight and 11 minutes per game. Malesevic will turn 21 in August.

ASU also had success via the transfer portal, which has closed. The Sun Devils' class ranking was 10th overall by 247Sports and first in the Big 12 as of last week. Together with Filip Malesevic we are excited to announce his commitment to Arizona State University.
