Strengths: Versatility, Athleticism, Rebounding

Breakdown: Olujic can do a lot of things well and with his size, provides good versatility on both ends of the court. He stands out as a rebounder with good effort and anticipation that helps him excel on the offensive glass. He’s also a more than capable dribbler, shooter, and passer, with the ability to run a set from the post and find the right option. Sometimes the dribble gets away from him in traffic, but he is a strong finisher at the rim and a lot of his shots come from off-ball opportunities.

Outlook: With his skill set and size, Olujic can fit into a lot of different schemes and lineups. He can contribute across the board, has the right mindset to fill whatever role is asked of him, and gives good effort in every department. One area that has a lot of potential for improvement is his outside shot. He’s already a pretty decent shooter from three but I think it can become a real strength of his game with more focus there and help him be an even stronger offensive threat.

Olujic is a massive transfer for Mount Si, slotting right into the starting five and providing solid play across the board. He’s bigger than last year, now standing 6’7, he’s stronger, looks more athletic, and appears as hungry as ever. He adds an element of playmaking that will help spread the load and allow their guards to be the dynamic scorers they are. Olujic is a good shooter from mid-range and beyond the arc. He’s a strong finisher and has soft touch around the rim too. He is going to have a breakout year and has already been turning heads this summer.

Some people might be surprised to see Olujic in this article. I personally think the transfer to Mount Si will elevate his game in a very positive way. He’s going to fir right in with other top 2023 player Miles Heide Miles Heide 6'7" | C Mt Si | 2023 State #274 Nation WA , as well as 2024 guards, Blake Forrest Blake Forrest 6'0" | PG Mt Si | 2024 State WA and Trevor Hennig Trevor Hennig 6'4" | SG Mt Si | 2024 State WA . Bennett’s game will fit perfectly around those players as he can play off the ball very well and create shots by always moving. Opponents may also focus on the other top players on the team, possibly leaving Bennett open for easy shots that he will knock down.

No. 3 | Olujic makes the move from Eastside Catholic to Mt. Si this year and slots into a team coming off a near undefeated season. Olujic is a perfect fit for the Wildcats, he can stroke the outside shot, mix it up inside and contribute on the boards, and defend multiple positions. He plays a little under the radar, and is one of those players that will slowly chip away at you in different areas, leaving a big impact in the end.
