Bojan Bogdanovic (Still a Net!) scored 18 points to lead Croatia over Canada and Anthony Bennett (Not yet a Net?) who scored 10 points in Thursday's "friendly" game near Venice, where Croatia is training. The final score was 78-70. The game was played in the hours before the NBA Draft, when some had speculated that the Nets might move Bogdanovic for a pick. Didn't happen.
Despite the presence of the Magic's Mario Hezonja and the 76ers soon-to-be rookie Dario Saric, the Croatians ran their offense through the Nets' shooting guard, as they have for the last several years.
