|
| |  | MILWAUKEE: GUARDS: BRANDON KNIGHT slides into Brandon Jennings' point guard slot, but he's a much different player. Knight hasn't proven capable of running the point, and may eventually settle in as an undersized shooter . . . O.J. MAYO will be the focal point of this offense. He should build on his career-best year in Dallas . . . GARY NEAL will give them some instant offense as a sixth man . . . LUKE RIDNOUR provides Knight insurance, and the ability to play either guard spot. He should fit nicely alongside Mayo for stretches . . . KHRIS MIDDLETON could crack the rotation as a capable defender with upside as a shooter . . . Second-rounder NATE WOLTERS must knock down jumpers if he's going to get off the bench. FORWARDS: ERSAN ILYASOVA will once again have to earn his starter's minutes, as the Bucks have loaded up on quality frontcourt depth. He provides more offense than anyone else on the front line . . . CARON BUTLER should start at small forward for this team after freeing himself before ever having to play in Phoenix . . . CARLOS DELFINO will play a key role scoring off the bench. He's a streaky long-range gunner, but defends well enough to stay on the court . . . JOHN HENSON is on the verge of a breakout as an elite rebounder and shot-blocker. He's still a bit behind offensively, which could hold him back in a crowded post rotation . . . GIANNIS ANTETOKOUNMPO was the most intriguing project in a weak draft, but the teenager is nowhere near ready for NBA action. He'll likely see time in the D-League until the second half of the season. CENTERS: We've loved LARRY SANDERS for years, and last year showed why. He's a Defensive POY candidate with a budding offensive game . . . ZAZA PACHULIA reunites with head coach Larry Drew as muscle off the bench . . . EKPE UDOH is likely on the outside looking in for this rotation. | | DENVER: GUARDS: TY LAWSON is turning into something of a one-man army as the roster around him crumbles. As good as he is as a quick playmaker who can knock down an open three, his supporting cast is lacking . . . EVAN FOURNIER is better than RANDY FOYE now, and he's certainly a bigger part of Denver's future. Fournier proved surprisingly ready for the NBA last season. While Foye brings more scoring power to a team that suddenly lacks offense, he's both inefficient and one-dimensional . . . NATE ROBINSON will provide instant offense and lead the second unit . . . ANDRE MILLER will lose a few minutes this year, but the 37-year-old still has good basketball left. FORWARDS: Coming off a late-season ACL tear, DANILO GALLINARI will be lucky to make it back by December . . . KENNETH FARIED will likely never develop into anything more than an energy guy and high-volume rebounder, but he's good at what he does . . . WILSON CHANDLER can shoot and defend multiple positions. With Gallinari a question mark, he could be in for a much bigger role this year . . . DARRELL ARTHUR is an interesting second-unit player. He's an athlete who was starting to show some skill in Memphis before getting hurt . . . Gunning wingman JORDAN HAMILTON may get a longer look in the second half of the season . . . QUINCY MILLER is likely ticketed for more D-League action . . . ANTHONY RANDOLPH is a lost cause. CENTERS: The time has arrived for JAVALE MCGEE. The front office wants him on the floor full-time. For all the knucklehead plays, he's still an incredible athlete in a massive 7-foot frame . . . Talk of J.J. HICKSON potentially starting is absurd. A brutal defender unable to play within the flow of an offense, he's a second-unit talent . . . TIMOFEY MOZGOV is Plan B behind McGee. The 7-footer can defend and set screens. |

*Bucks-Nuggets Preview* =======================
By NOEY KUPCHAN STATS Writer
Milwaukee (9-39) at Denver (23-23), 9:00 p.m. EDT
After opening February with a bang, the Denver Nuggets are hoping their latest result is a sign of things to come.
A visit from the NBA's worst team could help them get on a roll.
Denver goes for a seventh straight victory over the Milwaukee Bucks, who try to avoid a 10th consecutive road loss Wednesday night.
The Nuggets (23-23) had dropped five of seven before beating the Clippers 116-115 on Monday on Randy Foye's 3-pointer from 30 feet out as time expired.
"He's a great shooter, and he's been shooting the ball lights-out for most of his career," forward J.J. Hickson said. "One thing about Foye, whether he's on balance or not, he's going to make sure he's got some air under the ball and hold his follow through, and he knocked down a big shot for us.
"We have to do a great job of building on this win and get ready for Milwaukee, because if you lose to Milwaukee this game doesn't mean anything."
The Nuggets, who got a career-high 28 points and 11 rebounds from Kenneth Faried on Monday, would appear to have a big edge over the Bucks (9-39). Milwaukee has compiled an 0-9 road record since the start of January, a stretch during which it's been outscored by an average of 15.1 points.
The Bucks haven't lost 10 in a row away from home since an 11-game skid in 2006-07.
Milwaukee is coming off a thrilling win of its own, 101-98 over New York on Monday. Brandon Knight led the way with 25 points, including a tiebreaking 3-pointer with 1.4 seconds left.
"That's his shot. He loves that little step-back, half-dribble 3," said forward Khris Middleton, who added 19 points.
Knight and Middleton went a combined 9 of 14 from 3-point range as the Bucks shot a season-high 61.1 percent (11 of 18) from beyond the arc.
"I'm happy for our team because we were able to fight. If you can see (the resiliency) at this point in the season against a team that's been playing pretty well themselves, we're taking a step in the right direction," Knight said. "We just need to make sure that it's not a one-time thing, that we continue to build off this and get better."
Slowing down Faried could prove crucial for the Bucks, who are trying to win two in a row for the first time since March 17 and 19. The Nuggets have won 13 of their last 14 when Faried scores at least 13 points.
Faried had 13 points and 10 rebounds in his only matchup against Milwaukee, a 112-104 home win last Feb. 5.
He shot 11 of 13 on Monday.
"He came ready to play," coach Brian Shaw said. "He just brought it continuously. Tonight he was the Manimal and that's what we want to see every night."
Ty Lawson also came up big against the Clippers, posting 27 points in his first game back since missing two with a shoulder injury. Lawson averaged 24.0 points while shooting 54.2 percent in two games versus Milwaukee last season.
The Bucks are 1-16 against Western Conference opponents, with their only win coming 94-79 over the lowly Lakers on Dec. 31. Denver has dropped seven of 12 against the East after opening 5-0.
