KEY GAME INFORMATION
MILWAUKEE: GUARDS: The Bucks hope to fill a gaping hole at point guard with a committee approach. BRANDON KNIGHT, an undersized, athletically-overmatched combo guard, will get first crack at the job . . . Ex-Laker KENDALL MARSHALL, a heady floor general who can't shoot or defend, is an option as well . . . KHRIS MIDDLETON, a spot-up shooter, has a good chance to retain his starting job . . . New head coach Jason Kidd will try to rebuild O.J. MAYO, who could emerge as a serviceable sixth man, but looked wholly disinterested last season . . . The arrival of Marshall likely pushes NATE WOLTERS out of the rotation. He could be ticketed for the D-League at some point this season. FORWARDS: JABARI PARKER becomes the new face of this franchise. He can score as well as facilitate the offense. The only real question is what kind of defensive effort he puts in . . . GIANNIS ANTETOKOUNMPO will be used at both forward spots and both guard spots as well. The Greek Freak is raw, but the Bucks will expand his role . . . After a season in Larry Drew's doghouse, the coaching change should bode well for ERSAN ILYASOVA. He's likely looking at a part-time role . . . JOHN HENSON will play some 4 and 5, though his lack of an offensive game limits his appeal . . . JOHNNY O'BRYANT III might push for a rotation spot once he returns from a knee injury in late November. He's one of the few big men on this team who can score around the basket . . . If DAMIEN INGLIS comes over, he's looking at a D-League stint. CENTERS: Kidd is a LARRY SANDERS believer, so after a season filled with injuries and knucklehead behavior, he'll have every chance to bounce back. When he's in the right place, he's an elite rim protector . . . Larry Drew favorite ZAZA PACHULIA is looking at a traditional back-up role now that Drew is gone.
DENVER: GUARDS: TY LAWSON is the facilitator in Denver's up-tempo offense. Durability is a concern, as he missed 15-plus games for the third time in five career seasons during the 2013-14 campaign . . . ARRON AFFLALO is what the Nuggets need. He'll be a No. 3 scorer and, more importantly, gives them a big defensive upgrade . . . Denver can't afford to play RANDY FOYE so many minutes. He's a serviceable reserve, but they won't win games if he's playing 30-plus minutes . . . The Afflalo acquisition blocks him, but GARY HARRIS is tough-nosed on defense and a solid deep threat . . . NATE ROBINSON might unseat Foye for the sixth-man role by midseason, but first he'll have to work his way back from a torn ACL . . . Combo guard ERICK GREEN will pick up garbage-time minutes. FORWARDS: KENNETH FARIED is one of the few bright spots in Denver. He can't generate his own offense, but he's effective filling lanes and picking up garbage points in this system . . . If he's ever 100 percent healthy again, DANILO GALLINARI will be the go-to scorer on this team. But he's a question mark after missing all of last season with a torn ACL . . . WILSON CHANDLER won't be relied on as heavily this season, but he's going to get major minutes as a floor spacer who can play the 2-guard or either forward spot . . . Stretch-4 DARRELL ARTHUR is a solid rotation guy when he's shooting well, but he was laying bricks last season . . . QUINCY MILLER has intriguing athleticism, but remains a raw project . . . Even if he wasn't coming off a torn ACL, J.J. HICKSON would not make this rotation. CENTERS: TIMOFEY MOZGOV may have grabbed the lead in this center-by-committee group with his strong finish to last season . . . A stress fracture cost JaVALE McGEE his chance to secure a full-time role last season. The tantalizing, but consistently disappointing, big man should make the rotation, but has an uphill battle to earn minutes . . . JUSUF NURKIC is a high-upside project as a 7-footer with a legit NBA offensive skill set.

*Bucks-Nuggets Preview* =======================

By JEFF MEZYDLO STATS Senior Writer

Milwaukee (32-27) at Denver (20-39), 9:00 p.m. EDT

Beginning with a loss at Milwaukee, the Denver Nuggets have gone winless since the All-Star break.

Their current struggles at home began well before.

The Nuggets can avoid matching the club record of 11 consecutive homes defeats by extending the Bucks' season-high road skid to five games Tuesday night.

Denver (20-39) entered the break off a 106-96 win over the Los Angeles Lakers but after trading second-leading scorer Arron Afflalo to Portland, had its eight-game winning streak over Milwaukee end with an 89-81 loss on Feb. 20. Including that defeat, the Nuggets have averaged 87.8 points and shot 36.1 percent while dropping six in a row - one off their season high. This is their fourth skid of at least six games.

Losers in 19 of 21, the Nuggets' 99-92 loss to New Orleans on Sunday left them within a game of the team-record 11-game home losing streak set in 1997-98. Though Denver held an opponent to fewer than 100 points for the first time in 11 home games, it still hasn't won there since Jan. 14.

While Milwaukee (32-27) has dropped four straight at Denver, it faces a Nuggets club that's mired in their worst season since going 17-65 in 2002-03.

"You've just got to find a way. You've got to play your heart out," center Kenneth Faried said.

In order for the Nuggets to end their losing ways, coach Brian Shaw believes leading scorer Ty Lawson (16.3 points per game) and top rebounder Faried (11.2 points, 8.5 rebounds per game) must improve both competitively and mentally after their struggles continued with a combined eight points Sunday.

Though Lawson had 11 assists, he's averaged 8.0 points and shot 38.7 percent in the last four games - all at home. The Nuggets have lost their last seven games when Lawson fails to reach his scoring average.

The 6-foot-8 Faried is averaging 5.2 points while going 12 of 40 from the floor and 6.0 boards in his last six contests.

"I've got to find a way to get Ty going. ... Get Kenneth going," Shaw said. "Those two are our best players and we need to get them to play better. Everybody needs them, their energy, their aggressiveness. We've got to continue to figure out how to get more interest and more energy from those two guys in particular."

While Lawson was a healthy scratch for missing a practice, Faried had eight points on 4-of-11 shooting plus five rebounds and three turnovers at Milwaukee last month. Rookie Jusuf Nurkic scored 11 and recorded a season-high 15 boards with three blocks but will miss a third straight game with a foot injury.

A day after being traded to Milwaukee, Michael Carter-Williams wasn't available for the first meeting but enters the rematch hoping to build on a solid effort in Saturday's 82-75 loss at Utah that dropped the Bucks to 0-2 on a four-game trip against Western Conference teams. They're 3-8 on the road versus West teams.

After totaling 15 points in his first two games with the Bucks, Carter-Williams had 16 on 6-of-10 shooting to go with five rebounds and four steals.

Milwaukee, however, has averaged 79.7 points while shooting 37.2 percent over the last three of its four-game road slide.

"Our defense has always kept us in games throughout," said Bucks coach Jason Kidd, whose team is tied for second in the league allowing an average of 96.4 points. "Sometimes we feel sorry for ourselves offensively when the ball isn't going in.

"We've kind of forgotten that that is what we built this on - doing the little things."
