Len now forced to guard Davis with Bender going to the bench with 3 PFs.

He had 9 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists.

Jackson and Chriss also have 3 PFs.

Suns played great with Len out, now giving it up with him back.

Thats fine since we are tanking, but it didn't speak well for triano that he has been playing so much of Len at the 5 the past few weeks

It was the foul situation with Bender, Chriss and Jackson that forced Len back into the game. They all have 3 PFs.

Indeed. Payton's stats do not reflect how well he has played with 6 points, 4 assists and 3 rebounds.

Is anybody in this draft better than AD?

The Pelicans have had AD for years and still struggle.

But Bender is also 7 feet tall

I doubt if Bender could finish over Davis but he needs to have that mentality.

He needs to get stronger and get an aggressive mindset.

The Nets are winning tonight. They need to be the Suns firewall in the draft.

This is a puzzler indeed. Davis simply has not been able to Carry the Pelicans.

If the Suns offered Len a new contract he should have signed it. He is losing value the way he plays.

A Chriss sighting. He has all the tools if he can learn to use them.

Len, Chriss and Bender are easily 3 of the most frustrating players to watch! Man they can look BAD!
And, I swear this team has to have set a record for missed shots at the rim!

Especially Len as he has frustrated fans for 5 seasons.

Ayton has that potential... but AD has also never been paired with anyone as good as Booker... not even close. The New Orleans front office has been a disaster for years.

The Pelicans are playing better with Davis on the bench. Perhaps it's because they are moving the ball better.
