The Milwaukee Bucks hadn’t really inspired much excitement with their past three pre-draft workouts, but the story was different on Saturday. There has been a rumor casually floated out about their desire to move up in the draft for a less risky prospect, but if that doesn’t amount to anything–and it’s very likely that it won’t–Kentavious [...]
The Milwaukee Bucks conducted their fifth draft workout Thursday morning. The big names were not were not in attendance, but some popular faces headlined today’s group. Former Badger forwards Jared Berggren and Mike Bruesewitz, along with UW-Milwaukee guard Paris Gulley, Colorado forward Andre Roberson, Farmingdale State forward/center AJ Matthews, and Santa Clara guard Kevin Foster [...]
As the June 27 NBA draft draws closer, the Bucks hosted their fourth draft workout – and first of three in the next four days – featuring a mix of players from first-round prospects to projected undrafted free agents hoping to catch the team’s eye or secure a spot on a Summer League roster. The [...]
The Milwaukee Bucks held their third draft workout this morning in advance of the June 27th Draft. As opposed to the last crop of guys, today’s participants are hoping to sneak into the second round or snag a spot on a Summer League roster, in hopes to make it to a training camp. The two [...]
The Milwaukee Bucks made their draft desires quite clear at this morning’s workout, the second of several planned before the June 27th draft. Director of Scouting Billy McKinney confirmed this need, stating, “You look at our roster and we have a lot of big men on the roster so we’re looking at swing positions [...]
Draft workouts have officially begun. Tuesday the Milwaukee Bucks will audition six players: Marquette’s Junior Cadougan, Iowa State’s Will Clyburn, D-League finals MVP Glen Rice Jr., Dakota State’s Tyrone Gordon Jr., New Mexico’s Tony Snell and Syracuse forward James Southerland. Rice, a 6-foot-6 small forward, is the highest ranked player on DraftExpress.com’s Top 100 prospect list (26), followed [...]
Scuttlebutt scuttlebutt scuttlebutt. That’s all there’s been over the past 72 hours and that’s all there will be until 2PM tomorrow. The Milwaukee Bucks are in the middle of many of these rumors, and one that was offered up yesterday by Ken Berger of CBS was with Orlando for J.J. Redick. The trade would send [...]
We’ve all been had. The Milwaukee Bucks were actively talking trade all along! While it isn’t the roster shakeup we’ve seen the team make in each of the past two seasons, the Bucks have unloaded some fringe rotation players to land a guy who could be at least part of a solution at that pesky [...]
2012 Player Capsules: Brandon Jennings
I’m not sure we’ll ever know what happened with Brandon Jennings in early February last season. Milwaukee’s premiere guard was cruising along through the first third of the lockout shortened 2011-12 season. Despite a road heavy early season schedule, Jennings was producing at a level far better than he had in his first two seasons. [...]
2012 Player Capsules: Monta Ellis
There was a trade in the NBA this weekend. You may have heard. The Oklahoma City Thunder made an expectation defying deal that will undoubtedly either end up a brilliant reminder of how smart you have to be to succeed in a small market or a sobering lesson on why small market teams can’t thrive in today’s [...]
2012 Player Capsules: Samuel Dalembert
“I want the team to be one of the top defensive teams. I’ve been to so many training camps and seen coaches focusing on offense, offense, offense. We came here and I’m like, ‘Wow.’ I wanted to hug coach (Scott Skiles). For the first time in seven years, the Milwaukee Bucks starting center isn’t Andrew [...]
2012 Player Capsules: John Henson
From every indication, John Henson is ready to play defense in the NBA. For his sake, I hope that’s true. Because his capability to play defense this year could have quite an impact on his career. Henson is probably going to land on his feet no matter what. He was a very highly regarded high [...]
