Bojan Bogdanovic on place of Pierce

Bojan 25-year-old Croatian forward has spent the past three years playing overseas but signed, and finally signed a 3 years contract of $10 million deal with the Nets on July 22—five days after Pierce became a Wizard.

Bogdanovic is not as a elite defender, but he can put points on the board in a hurry way, perhaps more importantly, in a variety of ways he is younger and more enthusiastic for the game over Pierce
His 21.2 points per game tied for the second-highest average in the World Cup, which was highlighted by four 20-plus scoring outings in six games. Pierce, who averaged 13.5 points, had 20 or more points in 11 of the 75 games he played last year

Bogdanovic shot 36.1 percent from three-point land this summer and managed to make 29.8 percent of his long-range shots for Fenerbahce last year. However, the forward converted 41.1 and 40.5 percent of his threes in 2011-12 and 2012-13, respectively, but of 6’8”, 216-pound wingman uses his body the same way that Pierce does, which allows him to also break his man down off the dribble and go down in the post.
