Wisconsin Herd Thread

The Denver Nuggets are among the final few cheap holdouts without a G-league team, so they have their 2-Ways (Bol Bol and PJ Hairston) assigned to the Windy City Bulls for their opener against Herd in Oshkosh next week. The Bulls will also have their own 2-ways and anyone else they assign.

Hoping we get a look Donte, Thanasis and Dragan to start the season.

Anyone know who will be playing for the Herd? Bender was in Minne so doubt he traveled back to Milwaukee.

They actually had a preseason game last Friday, I just found that out. They lost 99-95.

McCoy is still on the team and started the preseason game, so they do have some size on the roster to start the season.

After bombing with Duval last year, I'm liking Tucker this years as a potential prospect. He's a top end athlete, he can shoot and has some size. Can't ask for more than that with an undrafted G-leaguer... I have some hope for Reynolds, too. Gotta like tall wings that can shoot. Even have a little hope for McCoy. Still remember the reports of him playing even against fellow Freshmen Ayton and Bamba in 2017/18.

Yeah, they have back to back games in Milwaukee and Chicago on Friday and Saturday. I'd like to see Bender play in both those games.

Jemerrio Jones box scores are going to get some play around here this season.

It's going to be interesting... 10 rebounds, no points, in 17 minutes... :lol:

He's the player I am most interested in. Imo, all he needs to do is show he can hit open 3's to show he can be an effective role player in the NBA. Nobody his size rebounds like him - not even close. And he plays good defense and passes well, so he's not completely 1 dimensional. I hope they give him 30 minutes a game to let him prove himself and get some confidence.

He finally gets to play - hopefully to dominate - but to do that, he needs players to feed him.

Well thankfully the Herd have (arguably)the best point guard in the league in Frank Mason III. Should be fun to see Dragan vs Bol Bol.

Wow the Bulls are going to be loaded with NBA players vs the Herd this weekend. In addition to their and Denver’s 2-way assignments, they also have Denzel Valentine and Daniel Gafford assigned to Windy City. Really nice test for Wisconsin.

Calling Denzel Valentine a nba player is a bit of stretch :lol:
