A native of Belgrade, Serbia, Borovnjak is a versatile player capable of scoring in the paint and on the perimeter. At 6-foot-9 and 228 pounds, he has very nice footwork around the rim, is also a good defender, and an excellent rebounder.

He arrived at Veritas last October and has already added over 15 pounds of muscle to his frame. During his junior season, Borovnjak played in the paint with 7-foot-2 center Catalin Baciu, who is now a freshman at Clemson. In 40 games, Borovnjak averaged 14.2 points and nine rebounds, and he averaged 21 points and 12.4 boards over the final five games of the season.
