Bucks Lose

The New Orleans Hornets won for just the 2nd time in 11 games with a 102-81 win over the Bucks last night in The Big Easy.  Brandon Jennings led the Bucks with 25 points while Monta Ellis scored 17. 

 

Injury Update

Packers coach Mike McCarthy gave an update on a pair of injured players on Monday.  Head coach Mike McCarthy says Jordy Nelson’s hamstring injury isn’t too serious but there’s a good chance he’ll miss Sunday night’s game with the Detroit Lions.  TJ Lang has an ankle injury and may be able to play next week.  If he does return they may put him back at left guard and start rookie Don Barclay at RT after he was OK filling in for Lang against the Vikings.   Charles Woodson is real close to returning from a broken collar bone while LB Clay Matthews worked out on Monday but we’re not sure when he’ll return from a hamstring injury.  He’s missed the last three games.
