Uninspiring.

Can anyone find any decent stats on him? I wasn't impressed with his limited preseason run but I'm trying to find Gleague or international stats or something on him and can't find anything of substance. Has he basically not played for a few years?

Makes sense to get a big on a 2 way. Especially if Portis is dealing with stuff and obviously Rolo doesn’t look great. Do we like Bolden? Big recruit but has never really done much.

who would you rather sign for the last spot on the roster?

He played college ball until 2019, but since then all I can find is 3 G league games and 7 NBA games. What has he been doing since 2019?

You're on the website dawg, take a peek at his RealGM player page.

Good call. His B-ref page only lists 3 career G League games so it seems messed up. That makes alot more sense. Thanks

Was hoping for Nathan Knight on a two-way after he got waived. I just think Bolden is a waste of a spot because he sucks. Not a big deal, but Knight could have played real minutes if needed.

Yup. We now get 3 -2 way spots, but have only used 1 on an intriguing player, TyTy.

I think Robin Lopez has looked better than Bolden in the Bucks games this preseason. Plus Lopez has been playing against better competition. Bolden has been very unimpressive to me. Looked like a camp fodder/filler with no outstanding attribute, talent or capability. The only thing I recall about him is that I would sometime mistake him for Portis, because of the white headband. "Wow, Bobby didn't look very good there" - and then I would realize it was #12 not #9.

Which is really saying something because Robin has been a walking turnover.

It’s just weird that after some nice finds between MarJon/Dre/TyTy/Green (and possibly Livingston, we’ll see), they fill out the two-way contracts with two dudes (Lindell/Bolden) that aren’t good, are already in their mid 20s, and who we know are never gonna be meaningful rotation pieces. Just keep Gortman and Omari at that point.

most likely none of those 4 would be around after the deadline but just in case theres injury keep the two that can fill in better til a real guy becomes available.

Robin has only 3 attributes, for me. He is a last resort big body. He is fun. He knows/accepts his role. Not much else there.

I was going to say Bolden has looked like clearly the worst player on our roster and that includes Robin, but its been covered :lol:

. Maybe they see something developmental?

Bucksmaniac · Post #457 » by **Bucksmaniac** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 9:06 pm

I really think Drew Timme is better than both Robin and Bolden, but for some reason we decided not to give him much of a shot in preseason.

Only three attributes, and one of them is wrestling mascots. The other two being that he's seven feet tall, and that he's not injured. Not sure what else there is for Sideshow Rolo.

Sort of like Milwaukee's version of Udonis Haslem

We need to get TyTy on a real contract. Got MarJon and Dre on rookie deals for 3 more seasons, need to lock in TyTy on a similar deal.
