Timeline
Stanislav "Slava" Medvedenko (Станіслав "Слава" Медведенко; born 4 April 1979) is a Ukrainian former professional basketball player, who played with the Atlanta Hawks and the Los Angeles Lakers in the National Basketball Association.
His position was power forward.
After his basketball career ended Medvedenko embarked on a political career in Ukraine.
Medvedenko, who joined the Los Angeles Lakers in 2000, is known for his shoot-first mentality.
His shooting technique and skill have never been in doubt, but his work ethic and defense were far behind his offensive skills in his early career.
The 2003–04 season was his breakout year, as Karl Malone injured his knee and Medvedenko started the majority of games.
As such, his scoring and rebounding averages doubled and he was no longer seen as a liability in the fans' eyes.
Unfortunately, an injury kept him out of the 2004 pre-season and he dropped down the depth chart, unable to find his way back into the lineup under Rudy Tomjanovich.
With Phil Jackson's return to the Lakers, there was hope that Medvedenko would play a greater role due to his experience with the triangle offense.
However, due to a herniated disc in his lower back that required surgery, he missed almost the entire 2006 season.
He was waived at the beginning of March 2006, to clear roster space to enable the Lakers to sign guard Jim Jackson.
Medvedenko was signed by the Atlanta Hawks on 28 December 2006 for about $600,000, for the remainder of the season.
Medvedenko was a candidate (number 11 on the election list) for the Kyiv City Council of the party Voice in the 2020 Kyiv local election set for 25 October 2020.
But the party only managed to win 9 seats.
In 2022, he auctioned off both his NBA championship rings and memorabilia in order to raise money for the Ukrainian military.
He and his wife both served in the military during Russian war against Ukraine.
He was gifted two replacement championship rings in 2023 by Jeanie Buss.
The ceremony was also attended by Pau Gasol and Sasha Vujacic.
