Milwaukee Bucks Daily: A sort of homecoming for Eric Bledsoe
The latest Milwaukee Bucks Daily is here as Eric Bledsoe is prepping to face off against his former team, the Phoenix Suns, on Wednesday night.
In the latest edition of Milwaukee Bucks Daily, we hear from Eric Bledsoe as he’s about to face off against his former team for the first time, a pair of medical updates for both Mirza Teletovic and John Henson and more.
Of course, one of the biggest storylines in the first week of the season was Bledsoe’s tumultuous end with his former squad, the Phoenix Suns. Now as he prepares to go against them for the first time on Wednesday night since departing over two weeks ago, Bledsoe is just focusing on the game itself and downplaying all of the other angles that are already bubbling to the surface with his return.
