6'9 Freshman Josip Kronja is a low-volume, high-upside NAIA frontcourt prospect for the Drovers
Kronja, a 6'9 freshman from Split, Croatia, profiles as a long, developmental forward for Science & Arts (OK), with limited 2025-26 production but clear size upside and a spot on the 2026-27 roster[2][4][15]. In the 2025-26 season, he averaged 1.9 points in 12 games and 4.2 minutes per game, while shooting an efficient 83.3% from the field, which suggests he finishes what he gets and doesn’t force the action[15]. He looks more like a fit for a patient, role-based system than a high-usage one—think rim presence, depth value, and long-term upside rather than instant box-score fireworks[3][8][15].
