Stackhouse To Join Milwaukee Bucks For Remainder Of Season
The “Milwaukee Journal Sentinel” has reported that veteran Free Agent Jerry Stackhouse will sign a contract with the Milwaukee Bucks for the remainder of the season. Stackhouse will try to fill the void left by Bucks guard Michael Redd who was lost for the rest of the season last Sunday against the Los Angeles Lakers. Redd blew out his left knee and will have surgery to repair it either late this month or early next month.
Stackhouse was the number three selection in the 1995 NBA Draft taken by Philadelphia. He has also had stops in Detroit, Washington D.C. and spent the last five seasons playing for the Dallas Mavericks. The veteran saw limited time last season playing in just 10 games. In 14 seasons in the NBA Stackhouse has career averages of 18.4 points, 3.7 assists and 3.4 rebounds per game.
The veteran was shipped to the Memphis Grizzlies as part of a four team trade that would put Shawn Marion in a Mavericks uniform. Memphis bought out the balance of his contract making him an unrestricted Free Agent. Stackhouse has not played at all this season and it will be interesting to see what he has left in the tank as he becomes part of the Bucks.
New York Vinnie will never start a fight, but he's not afraid to finish one.. Mess with New York Vinnie and he'll rip your nuts off and throw them down the sewer!
