Hrvoje Perić (born October 25, 1985) is a Croatian professional basketball player who last played for Benedetto XIV Cento of the Italian second-tier Serie A2 Basket.

[5] With the incumbent Croatian League champions he encountered a higher level of play, with two consecutive finals in the domestic and two seasons in EuroCup, including a quarterfinal in 2008-09, however Zadar lost on all these occasions.

Despite being unable to win silverware, Perić performed well on all stages, earning his third A-1 All Star Game selection and plaudits from Eurobasket.com for the same league (Forward of the Year, MIP, 1st team).

He was keen to join them, Zadar were willing to sell him to generate income and the signing seemed to be a formality, however internal divisions at the Andalusian club hijacked the move, it was first cancelled[7] before finally going through for 200,000€.

The collective failure resulted in a squad makeover and Perić was a victim, with the option on the third year of his contract not being taken, he then returned to Croatia to play for KK Zagreb.

[12] His return to Serie A proved fruitful as he was called to play a larger role in Cremona, regularly starting and helping his team comfortably avoid relegation by providing good figures (14.3 points and 6 rebounds per game).

Moving upwards in his career, he joined stronger club Reyer Venezia Mestre, who had finished in the playoff places the preceding year, in July 2013.

[21] He played for a short period of half a year for Kleb Basket Ferrara[22] in the Serie A2, second tier Italian national league for the 2020-21 season.

This frustrating situation would repeat itself throughout his international career, despite making the preliminary squads of the 2010 FIBA World Championship[27] and EuroBasket 2013[28] he hasn't played in a tournament for Croatia as of 2015.

[31] Aged 19, Perić was seen as an athletic and explosive player with above average footwork and ball-handling skills but whose attitude and confidence problems could hamper his development.
