Gameday: Wolves at Milwaukee
December 15, 2007 at 8:52PM
Player to watch: Guard Michael Redd increased his scoring average in each of his first seven seasons, a streak in danger this year after he averaged 26.7 per game last season. He came within an assist of his first career triple-double in Wednesday's victory over Orlando.
Numbers: The Bucks are 5-0 this season when Redd gets five rebounds and five assists in a game.
Injuries: Wolves guard Greg Buckner's calf injury is better, but he remains out day to day. Bucks forwards David Noel (sprained wrist) and Michael Ruffin (fractured wrist) are out.
