Mavericks center Boban Marjanovic reunites with Tobias Harris to provide laughs from the bubble in Orlando
The Dallas Mavericks signed Boban Marjanovic last summer. The move broke up one of the great duos in the NBA. Marjanovic and Tobias Harris played together in Detroit, Los Angeles, and Philadelphia. They gave fans plenty of laughs with their off the court adventures too. Everyone was sad to see the duo part ways.
One unexpected perk of the NBA’s restart in Orlando is the two are reunited. The Mavericks arrived on July 8. They had to quarantine and test negative for the novel coronavirus twice before being allowed to explore the bubble. That passed on Friday.
Boban Marjanovic found his friend Tobias Harris which led to a hilarious exchange. Let us dive into it.

First, let us back up. Tim Bontemps wrote a fantastic piece for ESPN in December detailing their past and current relationship including the beloved Bobi and Tobi show. Check it out for more backstory on their friendship.
The Mavericks released a video on July 10 of Marjanovic and Luka Doncic getting fans excited for NBA Disney. See it below.

Harris quote tweeted the video here.
The Sixers forward was jokingly upset about Marjanovic’s new friendship with Luka. It went one step further when Boban found Harris inside the bubble. Fans can see the video Marjanovic posted to his Instagram story here. Harris had a different take in his video here.
It was all in good fun. Fans can bet they will see plenty of video of the two friends hanging out in Orlando once the Sixers quarantine ends. It will certainly bring everyone some hilarious content, so stay tuned.
Marjanovic is going to play a larger role for the Dallas Mavericks in Orlando too. Willie Cauley-Stein opted out. The Mavs replaced him with point guard Trey Burke. That means Kristaps Porzingis, Maxi Kleber, and Boban are the only three true big men on the Mavericks roster. Expect Marjanovic to see more minutes in Orlando as a result. How much will be something to monitor during the restart, so stay locked in.
