Tre Jones said at shootaround he didn’t “necessarily” view tonight’s game as a chance to prove he should start: “Every single day I’m trying to prove myself to everybody, myself included. I’m trying to play to the best of my ability and do what the team asks me to do.” – 12:01 AM

Vassell on Tre Jones, “”Tre brings a different energy when we’re in transition. He’s always looking up and just trying to find others. He knows when and where to find you. Just a true point guard. The energy he brings on both ends of the court is huge for us.” – 11:56 PM

Devin Vassell said the Bucks’ defense disrupted the final play, forcing both him and Wemby to give up the ball:
“I definitely wanted to get the shot, of course…But if it was perfect, it would have happened. But that’s not the NBA, that’s not basketball.” – 10:23 PM

Pop likes what he’s seen lately from Blake Wesley, especially defensively: “He’s played freely. He doesn’t look like he is worried about making a mistake. He’s been excellent at the defensive end.” – 6:24 PM

Updated story with Pop’s reaction to Wemby checking himself in late in Memphis:
“Definitely he is frustrated with the minutes restriction, but he’s also intelligent enough to understand that long-term is what we are interested in.”

Pop said Wemby “totally understood” when he was finally taken out of the game for good after he defied the minutes restriction by checking himself back in:
“He didn’t like it, but he understood. I am glad he didn’t like it.” – 6:00 PM

Pop said the date for the medical staff to re-examine Wemby’s right ankle is “coming soon.”
“It’s within the next week or two, I believe. But I don’t know the exact date.”
Pop said Tuesday that Victor’s minutes restriction wouldn’t be lifted until the ankle is re-examined. – 5:53 PM

Asked Pop what changes with Tre Jones in the starting lineup and he basically said one guy won’t change the approach.
Says Blake Wesley will fill Jones’ role off the bench. – 5:47 PM

Devin Vassell had a positive reaction to Wemby boldly checking himself into the game late at Memphis, but it’s not something he would try himself.
“I don’t know about that one, with that man down there,” he said while gesturing toward Pop. #Spurs

The Bucks rank a dismal 24th (out of 30 NBA teams) in points allowed per game at 119.7.
And, unless they make a deadline trade, it’s not going to get much better. A lot of bad individual defenders on this team. – 1:57 PM
