The Bucks got
their man in last night’s NBA Draft. 
With Cleveland taking Kansas’ Andrew Wiggins with the 1^st
overall pick, the Bucks selected Duke’s Jabari Parker with the 2^nd
overall pick.  In the 2^nd
round the Bucks took 19-year-old Damien Inglis out of France with the
31^st overall selection.  At
#36 LSU power forward Johnny O’Bryant was their man. Milwaukee
selected Lamar Patterson out of Pitt at #48 and then shipped him to Atlanta for a 2015 2^nd
round pick.

 

UW-Green Bay center Alec Brown was taken by the
Phoenix Suns in the 2^nd round with the 50^th overall pick.

 

Rickie Week’s
hit a leadoff homer in the 1^st and the Brewers never looked back
beating the Rockies 7-4 on Thursday night at Miller Park.  The Rockies
only runs came on a grand slam by Ryan Wheeler in the 4^th.  Wily Peralta gave up just those four runs in
six innings to notch his 9^th win of the season.  Francisco Rodriguez notched save #26 on the
year.   The series continues tonight as
Kyle Lohse gets the start for Milwaukee.  Coverage begins at 6:35pm on News-Talk 1450
