Milwaukee Bucks Grades: Bench
John Henson
, D
9 Points | 4-5 FG | 1-1 FT | 1 REB | 0 AST | 0 STL | 2 BLK |
Don’t let the stats fool you–Henson was getting whipped by Whiteside while the game was still in question. He shied away from contact with the Heat’s big man and took horrible angles defensively. He did have a couple of nice offensive plays–like a ten foot lefty hook, but he nearly let Whiteside get loose.
Jerryd Bayless, A-
11 Points | 4-7 FG | 0-0 FT | 3 REB | 3 AST | 1 STL | 0 BLK |
His grade is based solely on his three-point shooting. He was 3-6 from behind the arc and hit a big one at the start of the fourth quarter which quelled any potential run that the Heat were trying to start. The Bucks don’t need him to be superman. They just need a solid jumper every now and then.
, C-
0 Points | 0-2 FG | 0-0 FT | 1 REB | 0 AST | 0 STL | 0 BLK |
Another one of those games where you have to check the box score to see if Vaughn actually played or not–he certainly didn’t have an impact on the floor. He was open in the corner once, but Bayless overthrew him.
Johnny O’Bryant
, B+
4 Points | 2-2 FG | 0-0 FT | 6 REB | 1 AST | 0 STL | 0 BLK |
A workman-like effort from JOB is nothing unusual. This guy gives strong effort every time he steps on the floor. He led the bench in rebounds…in fact, he had more rebounds than anyone on the the bench combined.
