During the mid-to-late 2000’s, Bucks fans would latch on to any sort of hope that came their way. An exciting time came when Joe Alexander was drafted by the Bucks with the 8th overall pick in the 2008 Draft. Coming into the draft, Alexander was described as the best athlete in the field. However, the answer would soon be learned — no, Alexander would not be the superstar the Bucks were desperate for.
In the Summer League, Alexander averaged 9.2 points, 3.6 boards, and 1.2 blocks per game. There wouldn’t be too many high-points during Alexander’s rookie season.
