Bender possesses
outstanding mobility for his size. He has the
quickness
of a guard and also possesses smooth ballhandling
skills.
He gets superb lift, meaning he can be a dangerous
finisher
off drives or inthe paint. Bender simply gets off the
floor with
lightningquickness. He has remarkable shooting skills
for a 6-11
player. His tall, lanky frame makes it easy for him to
get off
his shot when he steps outside. Bender is a live body with great
reactive
skills. He has tremendous extension. If he could get
stronger,
he is potentially an excellent defender. Bender is
very much
a physical wonder - a player at 6'11" who can run
the floor
like a guard, handle the ball, and has
almost
unlimited shooting range.
