Does anyone on that list give you any hope of Anthony Bennett recovering his career?

Tom Hammonds. Gattison.

I don't want to use extreme BPM values.

If he gets to select, he should pick a team already good at defense, eliminate the 3ball entirely, hit offensive glass, cut usage to 14-15% and keep that low risk, low turnover result from last season.

Based on his FG% by distance data to date, AB should never voluntarily take anything but a layup or dunk.

He was (is) somewhat a victim of just being a bad pick. Nobody really had him at number 1 overall except apparently the Cavs, and had he gone say 7th in the draft (which would have been entirely plausible given the draft board) it wouldn't be a big deal. Turns out a 3/4 tweener who can't defend or shoot isn't a great draft choice. Who would have ever thought.
