Minnesota Timberwolves play “Where’s Nikola?”

February 14, 2012

In a season when Nikola Pekovic finally seems to be coming into his own in the NBA (not too shabby that 18.2 ppg/10.7 rbg average through 20 games), the Minnesota Timberwolves PR folks are apparently having some difficulty locating the 6’11” (2.11m) big man – at least that’s what they’d like you to think.

Check out below the Wolves’ new cheeserific promo clip made in conjunction with Delta Airlines in which Pekovic in full basketball gear – all the better to see his awesome inkwork with – strolls (unconvincingly) through African jungle, China, Moscow, Paris, Egypt and outer space.

As for answering the question itself, BallinEurope’s gonna go out on a limb and guess Bijelo Polje…
