Wednesday Bucks Notes

  • Chuck Gardner writes about the Al Horford and Corey Brewer workout. Horford worked alone while Brewer took part with Carl Landry and sacrificial lamb Matt Lojeski.
  • Meanwhile, Landry had a nice homecoming. Pretty amazing how five years ago he wasn't even good enough to play college basketball, then worked his way through junior college to Purdue.
  • CNNSI's Chris Ekstrand doesn't seem quite as plugged in as others, but he's posted his complete two round mock. Like Chad Ford and Jonathan Givony he has the Bucks taking Brandan Wright sixth. In the second round he has projected the Bucks taking Alabama PF/C Jermareo Davidson. Check out the video profiles of Wright and Davidson here. At 6'11" and 230 lbs, Davidson is more of a perimeter big who averaged 14 ppg/8 rpg/2 bpg as a senior, which was something of a regression from his junior year. Despite shooting only 16 threes all year, he shot an ugly 41% from the field, as compared to 48% as a junior. And while he isn't an explosive athlete, he's extremely long with a 7'4" wingspan.
