The Bucks’ second pre-draft workout consisted of big time considerations for first-round picks, and a much taller crop of players in general. Illinois C Meyers Leonard and North Carolina center Tyler Zeller have been rumored to be in the mix of players that the Bucks’ could wind up selecting with the 12th pick in the [...]
Yesterday I used “Could Meyers Leonard be part of the solution for the Bucks at center?” as a headline. Also I spelled Meyers without the first “e” because I didn’t do a very good job proof reading and I generally didn’t know a ton about this dude. With that in mind: Today, I say no to [...]
(Welcome Eric Buenning to Bucksketball. He loves the Bucks. I pressed him on why and he sounded sufficiently depressed enough for me to believe his love was pure. He’s going to be helping out and doing some writing now. – Jeremy) The NBA combine took place Thursday and Friday in Chicago on the UIC campus. [...]

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.

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 [...]
