Apparently there were 5 other teams who thought another player was better than Benn, just in this draft.

I also recall Ndudi Ebi saying he was as good as LeBron and ditched the Cats for the league. We all know well that turned out.

Tearing it up again tonight. Not starting but with the second most minutes in tonight's game. 25 points with almost 4 minutes left. Just hit a 27 footer.

After 3 games, he's 12th in the league in scoring, but yeah, not starting.

Pacers can't keep him on the bench much longer. They're awful, and he's arguably their best player.

Considered pretty bush in the NBA. He will learn. If he did that to the wrong guy it might result in a hard foul that might injure him.

Yeah. You don't do that when the game is effectively over. Imagine if Terry or someone else had been injured playing defense in that situation?

If Benn's team was up it would have been bush league... he 100% did nothing wrong. And neither did DT for not letting him get away with that.

Beg to differ. As a pro you just don't do that. If you do then you may not like the consequences. There was 7 secs left.

If that happen to an Az. player when we were up with 7 seconds that would be all we talked about every time we met that player. Benn will learn. He's playing great.

I think he was just giving him shit because they were teammates not too long ago. I bet afterwards they were texting each other even though they had their game faces on while it happened.

I wouldn't make too much out of it.

No I agree that may have been because they were prior teammates but do you really want to show up a prior teammate that is getting little playing time compared to you?
