The Milwaukee Bucks have placed starting point guard Mike James on the injured list due to a left rib injury, General Manager Larry Harris announced Tuesday.

To fill the void on the active roster, the Bucks signed point guard Anthony Goldwire to a one year contract. Goldwire, recently released by the Minnesota Timberwolves, has been under contract with nine NBA teams in 10 years and has career averages of 6.5 points and 2.9 assists per game.
