Dragan Bender returns to the bench as Marquese Chriss draws another start for Phoenix
Phoenix Suns power forward Dragan Bender will move the bench for Wednesday's meeting with the Detroit Pistons.
What It Means:
Bender drew a start on Tuesday night, though he was replaced in the first unit by Chriss to start the second half of that game, so this move doesn't come as much of a surprise. Last night was the first start of Bender's NBA career.
numberFire's models project bender for 17.2 FanDuel points in 24.4 minutes of action against on Wednesday.
