01/30/2012 22:44 Bucks hand Pistons fifth straight defeat
Brandon Jennings had 21 points, reserve Mike Dunleavy added a season-high 20 on 8-of-10 shooting and the Milwaukee Bucks rolled to a 103-82 victory over the skidding Detroit Pistons on Monday night.
Dunleavy's 2010-11 campaign was once again cut short due to injuries. This time it was a thumb injury, which sidelined the veteran for 20 games and cost him his starting gig. Still, Dunleavy was able to improve on his totals from a season ago, averaging 11.2 points, 4.5 rebounds and 1.7 assists during his 61 games on the floor. The biggest reason for Dunleavy's turnaround can be attributed to his improved shot. The 30-year-old shot 46 percent from the floor, including 40.2 percent from downtown, which was a fairly significant increase from his previous two seasons. While he is expected to once again be a starter heading into the 2011-12 season, Dunleavy's inability to stay healthy continues to hurt his value. He has missed a total of 98 games over the last three seasons, so there is reason for owners to be hesitant about spending a pick on him. When healthy, Dunleavy can be counted on for low-end double-digit scoring totals to go along with a healthy amount of rebounds. He also averaged almost two 3-pointers a game, which gives him some traction in deeper category-based formats. While he is far from one of the elite options out there, Dunleavy can be considered a solid reserve on plenty of teams. Consider taking him with a late-round pick in deeper formats on Draft Day.
