This 18 Year Old Phenom Is The Next European NBA Superstar. Everyone who watched EuroBasket 2025 asked the same question: who is this kid? Meet Miikka Muurinen, the 18-year-old Finnish basketball phenom, who is a highlight machine, they call him “Slim Jesus” and projected by many scouts as a potential #1 pick in the 2027 NBA Draft, despite having one of the wildest paths to the NBA we've ever seen.
From dominating the FIBA U16 European Championships, to shining at the EuroLeague next gen tournament and Nike Peach Jam, to holding his own against NBA superstars like Giannis Antetokounmpo, Nikola Jokic, and Luka Doncic at EuroBasket 2025, Muurinen’s rise has been nothing short of historic.
This video breaks down the incredible journey of Miikka Muurinen, from his basketball family roots in Finland, to his bold move to the U.S. for high school hoops 🇺🇸, to his shocking career decision to turn pro early and sign with Partizan Belgrade in the EuroLeague.
Learn how this fearless 6'11 forward with a 7'2 wingspan, elite athleticism, and two-way potential could become Europe’s next NBA superstar.
Will he be the next Lauri Markkanen? Or something even greater?
