Sikirić is Cibona’s newest signing

Antonio Sikirić was born on October 27, 2003, in Zadar. Standing 201 centimeters tall, he plays the small forward position. He developed as a basketball player in Zadar, where he played for the senior team in the Croatian league and the ABA League. An important step in his development came during two seasons with Zabok, where he was given a more prominent role and established himself in domestic competition.

After a successful spell with Zabok, he joined Split, with whom he won the Krešimir Ćosić Cup last season. At the Cup Final Four, he was named the Most Valuable Player by a vote of sports journalists.

Last season, Sikirić played 34 games in the Croatian league, averaging 9.8 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game. He was particularly impressive from three-point range, shooting 49.5 percent. In the ABA League, he made 21 appearances, averaging 6 points and 2.5 rebounds. His strong performances also earned him a call-up to the Croatian senior national team, for whom he made his debut last year.

With the addition of Sikirić, Cibona gains a young Croatian international who already has experience competing in both domestic and regional competitions.

Antonio, welcome to Cibona.
