Mike Brkovich

Mike Brkovich is a former Canadian basketball player from Windsor, Ontario. Of Serbian background (Serbian: Брковић, Brković), Brkovich was a leader in the 1970s W.D. Lowe H.S. team in Windsor, Ontario which won the Ontario Provincial Championship in 1976 and [1] 1977. He then played on the Michigan State Spartans team that won the 1979 NCAA tournament, defeating Larry Bird's Indiana State Sycamores. Michigan State at this time had arguably one of the top "fabulous fives" of all time: Magic Johnson F, Greg Kelser F, Jay Vincent C, Terry Donnelly G and Brkovich G.

He was drafted 181st overall (8th round) by the Milwaukee Bucks in 1981,[1] but never played in the NBA. He was a member of the Canadian national basketball team.
