Can't understand all the fuss and fascination with Bender. I mean, the kid can play alright, he's tall, he's very young so there's enough time for him to develop....BUT, we talking here about pure potential. There's a very good chance he becones Bruno Sundov 2.0. C'mon, he is projected to be No 3 in the draft based on what? A couple of games he played in sone junior tournaments, or a trash time he plays for Maccabi? Yeah right, look at Hezonja... I think he should thank Porzingis for being that high in the draft...maybe I'm wrong...actually I wish I am wrong because I'm from Croatia and would like to see kid make it, just not with us...I want someone who could help our team right away, not a project for the next 3-5 years...
