College career


Marić moved to the United States in 2012 to attend La Lumiere School in La Porte, Indiana. In 2013, he enrolled at Northern Illinois University and debuted for the Huskies men's basketball. An injury early in his freshman year led to him redshirting the 2013–14 season. He returned in the 2014–15 season[1] and played three full seasons for the Huskies. In 2017, he originally declared for the NBA draft, but withdrew his name before the draft withdrawal deadline.[2] He subsequently left Northern Illinois and joined DePaul as a graduate transfer.[2][3][4] In his lone season at DePaul, Maric averaged 13.6 points and 6.6 rebounds per game. He had a season-high 25 points, 11 rebounds and 5 assists against St. John's on January 6, 2018.[5]

On June 19, 2020, Marić signed with BC Lietkabelis of the Lithuanian Basketball League.[13] He averaged 9.6 points and 5.6 rebounds in the EuroCup.[14] On December 3, 2020, he signed with Split of the Adriatic League and the Croatian League, returning to the team for a second stint.[14]

On September 19, 2021, Marić signed with Ironi Ness Ziona of the Israeli Basketball Super League.[15] He left the team in early November.[16]

On December 16, 2021, Marić signed with Larisa of the Greek Basket League.[17] In 25 league games, he averaged 11.6 points, 6.8 rebounds and 1.5 assists, playing around 20 minutes per contest.
