Bucks Lose Bogut With Injury

Milwaukee's injury situation worsened on Monday night against the Orlando Magic when they lost center Andrew Bogut to a knee bruise during the third quarter, the Associated Press is reporting.

The Bucks were already without fellow starters Michael Redd and Luke Ridnour.

Bogut had the better of Dwight Howard early, finishing 16 points and three rebounds in the first half. Without Bogut, though, Howard and his Magic were able to take control of the game and eventually win 108-101.

Bucks' coach Scott Skiles is pleased with the amount of chemistry the team has built in the early part of the season.

"I'm pleased with the way the guys have taken to each other considering the fact that we have a whole new way of doing things," Skiles said. "They've been very good and made efforts to get along and to respect the fact that we need good chemistry in order to win games."

The Bucks are 7-8 through their first fifteen games, even without sharpshooter Michael Redd, who hasn't played since Nov. 2.
