Bucks land pair of guards
Most expected John Hammond to use the 10th overall pick in the 2009 NBA Draft on a point guard. Few, though, thought the Bucks general manager would use that pick on Brandon Jennings, a 19-year-old that spent last season playing professionally in Spain.

On Saturday, though, there was a ray of good news: Andrew Bogut, who missed most of last year with a back injury, has been cleared to being working out.

With Redd out for the year, Bucks turn to Plan B
Losing Michael Redd -- and his 21.2 points per game -- was a big blow for a Bucks team clinging to the eighth and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.

Milwaukee Talks: Bucks center Andrew Bogut
Bucks' center Andrew Bogut's business is basketball. While the rigorous 82-game National Basketball Association season does not leave a lot of time for hobbies, it helps that one of Bogut's off-court interests is the business of basketball. That was especially evident earlier this month, when he made a personal donation to help a pro team in his native Australia. We talked to Bogut late last week about his interest in the business of basketball.
