Goran Suton (born August 11, 1985) is a Croatian professional basketball player for Movistar Estudiantes of the Liga ACB. He has completed his college career with the Michigan State Spartans in 2009.

Suton was born on the outskirts of Sarajevo in then-Socialist Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina, SFR Yugoslavia, to father Miroslav and mother Živana, a Bosnian Croat and Bosnian Serb respectively. During the Bosnian War, he lived with his family in Gornji Milanovac, Serbia. He played for the Bosnian U14 side before his family moved to the US, where he attended Everett High School in Lansing, Michigan, United States. There he led the Everett Vikings to a Class A boys basketball title in 2004 as a senior.

Suton first rose to notability during his freshman season at Michigan State, when he notoriously missed a last-second layup in a hotly contested game against Gonzaga in the Maui Invitational. Suton developed into a key player for the Spartans during his career, earning second team All-Big Ten marks during his senior season.
