Keith Benson, Pape Sy Off To Slow Starts In Italy, France

It's just two games in Keith Benson's case but Dinamo Sassari (former home of Othello Hunter) weren't impressed. Via Sportando Basket's Twitter feed:

Atlanta Hawks draftee Keith Benson on the verge to be waived by Dinamo Sassari after 2 Serie A games. Benson averages 6pt and 4rb in 21.5min

and:

Not official yet but Hawks draftee Keith Benson is out of Dinamo Sassari. He might play 1more game coz they don't have replacement yet.

Meanwhile in France, Pape Sy played in one of BCM Gravelines first two games, a 77-73 loss to Chalon (for whom Alade Aminu had 15 and 7 in 29 minutes), scoring 3 points in 13 minutes. Sy did not play in Gravelines' 91-59 victory over Roanne on Saturday.

Zaza Pachulia scored 10 points in Galatasaray's season opening win.
