The Bucks are going to take it slow with 22 year old power forward Larry Sanders. Sanders has played in 7 games (0 starts) for the Bucks so far this year and he is averaging 5.4 minutes, 1.4 points, 1.1 rebounds and 0.1 assists per game. The Bucks are very deep in the frontcourt so I don’t see Sanders getting a lot of P.T. unless they have some big guys get injured.

The Bucks made 31-year old shooting guard John Salmons a very rich man over the summer but he isn’t repaying them quite yet. Salmons has played in 9 games (all starts) for the Bucks so far this year and he is averaging 31.1 minutes, 11.2 points, 3.2 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game. He is also only shooting 36.2% from the floor and he has been awful so far this year. He started last season slowly and it’s still really early but the Bucks still need him to turn things around soon.

The Bucks outscored the Pacers 24-14 in the 4th quarter to pull out a road victory last night. John Salmons finally came alive as he led the way for the Bucks last night with 22 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists and 1 steal. Brandon Jennings filled up the stat sheet with 18 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals and 1 blocked shot. Luc Richard Mbah a Moute got a start because Andrew Bogut sat out last night due to injury. Mbah a Moute had 10 points, 15 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 1 blocked shot in 39 minutes despite only shooting 2 of 7 from the floor. Corey Maggette pitched in off the bench last night with 10 points, 7 rebounds and 1 assist in only 18 minutes on the court. The Bucks are now 2-4 on the year.

The Bucks folded up late in this game and it cost them. Andrew Bogut led the way for the Bucks last night with 21 points, 13 rebounds and 1 blocked shot. Carlos Delfino filled up the box score with 15 points, 4 rebounds, 7 assists and 1 steal last night. Ersan Ilyasova was solid off the bench last night with 15 points, 7 rebounds and 1 assist. Brandon Jennings (13 points), Corey Maggette (11 points) and Keyon Dooling (10 points) also pitched in offensively for the Bucks last night. The Bucks are now 1-4 on the year.

The Bucks couldn’t buy a basket last night as they only shot 37.5% from the floor which explains the home loss. Corey Maggette led the way for the Bucks last night with 16 points and 3 rebounds in only 17 minutes on the floor despite only shooting 4 of 12 from the field. Carlos Delfino pitched in with 14 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals last night. Andrew Bogut filled up the stat sheet for the Bucks in this game with 12 points, 9 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal and 2 blocked shots. The Bucks are now 1-3 on the year.

28-year old Carlos Delfino has been starting at small forward this year for the Bucks and he has been outstanding. Delfino has started all 3 games for the Bucks so far this year and he is averaging 36.7 minutes, 16.7 points, 4.7 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 2.0 steals per game. Delfino has been shooting good from everywhere on the floor so far this year for the Bucks as he is hitting 48.6% from the floor, 46.2% from three point range and 100% from the free throw line. He will keep playing over Corey Maggette as long as he keeps playing at his current level.

The Bucks outrebounded the Bobcats 40-28 last night which was a key to victory. Carlos Delfino led the way for the Bucks last night with 23 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals last night. Brandon Jennings got himself a triple/double last night with 20 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists on 6 of 8 shooting from the floor. Andrew Bogut filled up the stat sheet with 14 points, 8 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal and 4 blocked shots last night. John Salmons was only 4 of 11 shooting from the floor but he still finished up with 14 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals. The Bucks are now 1-2 on the year.

The Bucks only shot 35.6% from the floor tonight and they were outrebounded 62-39 but the T-Wolves. If the Bucks were playing any other team in the NBA they would have lost by at least 25 points tonight. Corey Maggette led the way for the Bucks tonight with 23 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists in 31 minutes off the bench. Brandon Jennings was laying bricks tonight as he was 4 for 15 from the floor finishing with 14 points, 3 rebounds and 7 assists. Drew Gooden only played 19 minutes tonight and he only shot 4 of 13 from the floor yet he still finished with 12 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal. The Bucks are now 0-2 on the year.

The Bucks just couldn’t make enough shots down the stretch to beat the Hornets in the Big Easy last night. Carlos Delfino got the start at small forward and he led the way for the Bucks last night with 19 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist and 3 steals last night. Corey Maggette was outstanding off the bench with 16 points and 7 rebounds in only 20 minutes last night in his Bucks’ debut. Drew Gooden (15 points, 11 rebounds, 1 assist), Andrew Bogut (15 points, 15 rebounds and 1 assist) and Brandon Jennings (15 points, 2 rebounds and 10 assists) also had good games for the Bucks last night but it just wasn’t enough. The Bucks are now 0-1 on the year.

The Bucks will be without backup PG/SG Chris Douglas-Roberts for the next month after undergoing eye surgery. This will hurt the Bucks a little bit as they were depending on him to give the bench some scoring punch. Keyon Dooling will back up Brandon Jennings at the point. Carlos Delfino will also likely get more P.T. then he was going to get with Douglas-Roberts out of action. The Bucks are in good shape without Douglas-Roberts but they still can’t wait for him to get back.
