Bogey Man lifts Nets over Magic
Rookie Forward Continues Making Strides in 104-96 Victory
Bojan Bogdanovic is no mystery to the Brooklyn Nets, but the rest of the NBA might soon want to take notice of the gifted rookie forward.
Bogdanovic scored a career-high 22 points on 9-of-12 shooting, ripped down six rebounds and sparked a decisive fourth-quarter run with a 3-pointer as Brooklyn closed out a successful four-game homestand with a 104-96 victory over the Orlando Magic on Sunday afternoon in front of 16,127 fans at Downtown’s Barclays Center.
After selecting him in the second round of the 2011 NBA Draft, The Nets tried in vain to sign the 6-foot-8 native of Bosnia and Herzegovina on two occasions.
