As the Milwaukee Bucks gathered for their annual Media Day on Monday in Milwaukee, there was one notable absence to be accounted for.
Point guard Eric Bledsoe was understandably not in attendance due to the birth of his third child the night prior, but based on how his season finished last year, there were unlikely to be many players that Bucks fans would have been more eager to hear from.
For the second season running, Bledsoe struggled significantly in the postseason and ultimately began to resemble a shell of the player that had been so key to the Bucks in the regular season.
