Luke Ridnour started at shooting guard for the Bucks again on Saturday with 14 points, one board, five assists and four 3-pointers in 30 minutes. Nobody seems to like it, but the Bucks look like they're going to roll with Ridnour at the shooting guard spot. In his previous nine starts this season, he has averages of 7.9 points, 3.4 boards, 5.4 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.6 triples. Luke is an unsexy pickup in deeper leagues.

Luke Ridnour moved back into the starting lineup on Wednesday with nine points, six boards, nine assists, one steal and one 3-pointer in 43 minutes. He came off the bench for a couple games due to matchups and coach Larry Drew put Ridnour back in as the starting shooting guard tonight. In his previous eight starts, he averaged 7.8 points, 3.1 boards, 5.0 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.5 triples, which would make him a low-end player to own in standards. There are probably some higher upside players to add in most leagues, though.

Luke Ridnour scored seven points on 2-of-6 shooting (including two threes) with one rebound and seven assists in 24 minutes off the bench on Friday. Ridnour is clearly a favored option for Larry Drew since he brings ball movement and cohesion to a younger squad, but his defensive liabilities are a bit too much to swallow especially playing at the off-guard spot. Give him a look in deeper formats.

Luke Ridnour played a team-high 40 minutes against the Bulls on Friday, scoring 14 points with five boards, eight assists, one steal and two 3-pointers. He was probably the best player as far as isolated stats go tonight and coach Larry Drew seems to like using him in the starting lineup." I think they complement each other," Drew said of the Brandon Knight-Luke Ridnour backcourt. "They play well together and feed off each other." Neither player poses as a threat to break down defenses and it's made the Bucks a very easy team to defend. Ridnour is worth a look in fantasy leagues if Drew wants to keep his inefficient rotation as is.

Luke Ridnour played 26 minutes against the Warriors on Tuesday, scoring four points with one board, three assists, one steal and one block. This is his second dud in a row after scoring just two points against the Suns on Saturday. Ridnour not being able to defend most guards is going to be a problem for him and figures to end up costing him minutes. He's not really worth owning in most leagues.

Luke Ridnour played a team-high 37 minutes against the Jazz on Thursday with 12 points, three boards, eight assists, one steal and three turnovers. This comes on the heels of a 11-point, 35-minute game on Tuesday, so he's now played significant minutes in two straight after a DNP-CD on Saturday. Coach Larry Drew has run some of the sloppiest rotations in the NBA and fantasy owners that want to pick up Bucks on the wings are at his mercy. It makes sense to add Ridnour, but only if you're cutting something you're not going to miss too much.

Luke Ridnour made his fourth start of the season on Tuesday next to Brandon Knight in the backcourt, playing a season-high 35 minutes with 11 points, four boards, three assists, one steal and one 3-pointer. He was a DNP-CD on Saturday, so of course he comes out with his highest minute total in a win. Ridnour has been successful in lineups with two point guards before, so it wouldn't be a shock to see coach Larry Drew stick with it. He's not really worth a pickup just yet in most leagues, though.

Luke Ridnour will start alongside Brandon Knight in the Bucks' backcourt on Tuesday. The veteran has started three games this season, posting 6.3 points, 5.7 rebounds and 1.3 steals while shooting just 30.8 percent from the field. He didn't even play in Milwaukee's last game and this is a wait-and-see situation given Larry Drew's pell-mell rotations. Ridnour's starting job moves Khris Middleton to the bench.

Luke Ridnour played 28 minutes against the Pistons during a 105-98 loss on Wednesday, scoring 10 points with three rebounds, eight assists, three steals and two turnovers. Coach Larry Drew went with Ridnour a little more after the Bucks looked bad on both ends with Brandon Knight running the point. Knight played 30 minutes or more in each of his last four games while Ridnour didn't crack the 24-minute mark in any of his last four. That's been the story with coach Drew for most of the season, so really the certain thing about the backcourt rotation of the Bucks is that it might be uncertain for a while.

Luke Ridnour hit just 1-of-7 shots (including a three) in Friday's overtime loss to the Sixers, but did add four rebounds, nine assists and two steals in 34 minutes. It's hard to figure out what to make of Brandon Knight, who has been a mess at point guard for the Bucks and is apparently returning at some point, and that's really going to drive Ridnour's value here. If you want to take a flier that Ridnour is the better fit for the Bucks and that Knight is a failed project, feel free, just don't drop anybody of real value to do it.
