Mehmet Bener brings size, international experience, and backcourt versatility to Whitman
Bener is a 6'0" guard from Ankara who gives Whitman a sturdy, experienced perimeter piece with a redshirt-sophomore profile and a proven scoring track record from his previous season at Niğde Ömer Halisdemir University, where Whitman notes he averaged 6.6 points and 2.7 assists. His value goes beyond box-score numbers: he has a compact guard frame, can handle the ball, and has international background that often translates to poise and adaptability. If you want a guard who can compete, organize, and fit into a team-first system, he is the kind of low-drama, upside role player worth watching.
