Hopefully he keeps climbing and pushes Bennett further down so that the Pelicans can grab him. Bennett is perfect for this team and is going to be an awesome player..

We're in the same boat. The guy's a powerhouse.

When you read the scouting reports on him, they read like a prototype SF, but he still gets pegged as an undersized PF for some reason.

They say he can shoot from deep, take people off the dribble, run and finish in transition, all these things teams love in a SF. Then it says he's not very good offensively or defensively in the post. Again sounds like a SF.

Seems to me the only reason he gets labeled a PF is because body-wise thats where it looks like he should be, not because of how he actually plays.

I also like his intensity. Smith gives a little of that but we don't really have that super fiery type of guy on this team.
