Sometimes the mountain travels to see Mohammad, which explains where Celtics president Danny Ainge and the team's director of player personnel, Austin Ainge, find themselves this weekend.
The Ainges will watch Dragan Bender tomorrow and Sunday in a pair of practices for Maccabi Tel Aviv. Bender, an 18-year-old Croatian, is one of the favorites to be taken by the Celtics with the third pick in the June 23 NBA draft.
Bender is a seven-foot point forward who, because of his age, comes off the bench for Maccabi Tel Aviv. The team just completed a three-game first round playoff sweep of league rival Bnei Hetzlia with an 81-54 blowout win yesterday in Tel Aviv.
