Bucks send Hibbert to Denver

February 24, 2017 By Bill Scott

Roy Hibbert hadn’t played a single minute since coming to the Milwaukee Bucks in a February 2nd trade with Charlotte.

The Bucks sent Hibbert to the Denver Nuggets in exchange for a heavily protected 2019 second round draft pick.

Hibbert wasn’t going to get an opportunity in Milwaukee.  The Bucks have already made the decision to give those minutes and more to 7’1 rookie center Thon Maker, as well as top backup Greg Monroe.

The Bucks still have Spencer Hawes in the deal that sent center Miles Plumlee to Charlotte.  Hawes was averaging 7.3 points and 4.2 rebounds in 35 games with the Hornets.

The Bucks return to action on Friday night when they host the Utah Jazz at the Bradley Center.  They start the day one game behind Detroit for the eighth and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.

Bucks deal Plumlee to Hornets

February 2, 2017 By Bill Scott

The Milwaukee Bucks signed Miles Plumlee to a four-year, $50 million contract last summer, but things didn’t work out the way either side had hoped.

Bucks general manager John Hammond sent Plumlee to the Charlotte Hornets on Thursday, getting big men Roy Hibbert and Spencer Hawes in return.  The Bucks also released Steve Novak to make room for the extra roster spot.

Plumlee averaged 2.6 points and 1.7 rebounds in 32 games for the Bucks this season.

Hawes is a 10-year NBA veteran with stints with Sacramento, Philadelphia, Cleveland, the Los Angeles Clippers and the Hornets.  He averaged 7.3 points and 4.2 rebounds in 35 games for Charlotte this season. [Read more…]

Sanders shines in Buck’s loss to Pacers

January 6, 2013 By admin

Despite a double-double from Larry Sanders, the Milwaukee Bucks were defeated by the Indiana Pacers 95-80 on Saturday night.

On a weekend that saw back-to-back games played by Milwaukee, the Bucks struggled shooting from the floor, hitting just under 38% of their shots.

This fourth consecutive loss from Milwaukee puts them at 16-16 and now three and one half games behind Central Division leaders the Pacers.

For Milwaukee, Monta Ellis had a game-high 21 points and was one of three Bucks in double-digits.  Larry Sanders and Brandon Jennings each had 12 points in the loss.

Sanders led the team in rebounds with 12, and got his-double-double for the game.

Indiana was led in scoring by Roy Hibbert, who also had a double-double and scored 20 points.  Pacers’ George Hill had 14 points, and David West and Lance Stephenson each had 10 points in the victory.

The Pacers were led in rebounds by Hibbert who had 15, with Hill grabbing eight boards.

Milwaukee looks to snap this losing streak at home against the Phoenix Suns Tuesday night.
