Maccabi Tel Aviv should soon sign Croatian center Dragan Bender. He should sign a three-month contract with the option to play the entire season for the Pride of Israel, reporter Nemanja Žorić announced on Twitter.
In the last season, Bender played in the NBA for Golden State and averaged nine points, 5,9 rebounds and 2,1 assists in the Warriors jersey.
Although numerous NBA clubs were interested in the 22-year-old center, he decided to return to the club he played for in the 2015/2016 season. Before he was the fourth pick in the draft.
Maccabi failed to extend the cooperation with Quincy Ace, so Bender came as a replacement. In addition, Maccabi extended the contract with 37-year-old Amar'e Stoudemire and signed a three-year contract with Max Heidegger, a playmaker who played for Santa Barbara in the NCAA League for the previous four seasons and averaged 16 points.
