Bojan Bogdanovic started off the season in the starting lineup but a slow start to his rookie campaign moved him to the bench. Bogdanovic has the ability to be an elite scorer in the NBA and a struggle to adjust from the Euroleague to the NBA is a normal occurrence. Nikola Vucevic is a close friend of Bogdanovic’s and he told the rookie Croatian “Don’t panic.”
Vucevic has seen first hand how good of a basketball player Bogdanovic is and he knows how hard it is too adjust to the NBA. Bogdanovic will eventually start to receive a good amount of minutes again and when given the opportunity Bogdanovic needs to step up. Bogdanovic has the ability to dominate on the offensive end and if he emerges in the second half of the season that can significantly help Brooklyn.
