Andrew Bynum scored 15 points on 5-of-11 shooting with a matching 5-of-11 mark from the foul line, and also grabbed 12 rebounds with one steal and two blocks in 33 minutes.
Bynum admitted he wasn't in game shape and he looked a bit slow, particularly as the defensive game plan called for him to show on screens instead of going under them. Those reporters that cover him every day have staunchly defended his conditioning as being above average, so we're not going to hold Bynum to the fire here. Bynum held top-40 value for a stretch last season, and accounting for his injury risk we like him in the fifth round. He won't be available by the sixth.
