Pop quiz time:
Which promising rookie did the Bucks trade for a rental of a crappy veteran?
If you answered Tobias Harris, I don’t blame you, it’s my fault for wording the question ambiguously. But the real answer is Jon Leuer, who was traded as part of a package for Sam Dalembert. The pain never ends for Bucks fans.
It took Leuer a while to find his niche again in the NBA, but he may have found it with the Grizzlies, at least while their all-star bigmen are out with injuries. And I’ve certainly been waiting a while for a chance to do some Leuer Alcindor highlights. I did make a video of him scoring 11 last year, out of desperation. But this is a lot better.
Not saying those highlights were bad. They weren’t. They were good. They were just a little light on the Leuer action, something you will find is not the case with this video.
