Drew Bender

Rotational Northern Colorado guard with shot-making flashes and passing feel

Drew Bender’s profile is that of a steady backcourt piece: at Northern Colorado, he played 26 games as a rookie and averaged 10.7 minutes while shooting 32.1% from the field for 2.6 points per game, suggesting a guard who contributed in limited bursts rather than as a featured scorer.[2] Earlier college stats also show he can help organize an offense, with Cal State East Bay listing him at 6.0 points, 2.1 assists, and 2.2 rebounds per game in one season, which hints at some combo-guard value.[3] He looks most appealing as a depth guard who can handle the ball and give you connective play, but he is not yet a proven efficiency driver or high-volume creator.[2][3]
