League Search Page > NBA > Milwaukee Bucks > Roster & Statistics

The Milwaukee Bucks 2008–09 featured a balanced offense built around the scoring of Michael Redd and Richard Jefferson, with Andrew Bogut providing an interior presence through rebounding, efficient finishing, and rim protection. Ramon Sessions emerged as the team’s primary playmaker, while Charlie Villanueva supplied valuable frontcourt scoring. The roster combined solid rebounding and inside production with capable ball movement, but consistent perimeter shooting and overall offensive efficiency were less prominent strengths.

PLAYER NAME	ROLE TIER	MPG	USAGE TIER	PPG	RPG	APG	STK	IMPACT INDEX	NOTES	AWARDS
Richard Jefferson	Starter/Star	35.8	High	19.6	4.6	2.4	1.0	72.86	Slashing wing scorer who became Milwaukee’s primary offensive option after Michael Redd’s injury. Jefferson attacked in transition, got to the foul line regularly, and carried a heavy workload on a roster searching for consistent scoring.	—
Michael Redd	Starter/Star	36.5	High	21.2	3.2	2.7	1.2	74.18	Pure scoring guard who remained the focal point of Milwaukee’s offense before injuries cut his season short. His combination of perimeter shooting and off-ball movement still made him one of the Eastern Conference’s tougher covers when healthy.	—
Charlie Villanueva	Starter/Star	26.9	High	16.2	6.7	1.8	1.3	68.90	Instant-offense forward whose scoring punch transformed Milwaukee’s second unit. Villanueva stretched defenses, created mismatches against slower bigs, and produced one of the best offensive seasons of his career.	—
Andrew Bogut	Starter/Star	31.2	Medium	11.7	10.3	2.0	1.6	61.23	Interior anchor who quietly developed into one of the league’s better all-around centers. Bogut controlled the glass, protected the paint and served as Milwaukee’s most important defensive presence whenever he was available.	—
Ramon Sessions	Key Contributor	27.5	Medium	12.4	3.4	5.7	1.2	52.61	Penetration-heavy guard who consistently pressured defenses off the dribble. Sessions emerged as one of the league’s more productive young playmakers and often injected life into Milwaukee’s offense.	NBA Most Improved Player Voting (4th, 2009)
Luke Ridnour	Starter/Star	28.2	Medium	9.6	3.0	5.1	1.5	46.83	Steady table-setter who balanced Milwaukee’s backcourt with controlled decision-making and reliable passing. His ability to organize the offense complemented the team’s more aggressive scorers.	—
Luc Mbah a Moute	Starter/Star	25.8	Low	7.2	5.9	1.1	1.6	34.85	Defensive specialist who earned major minutes as a rookie through effort and versatility rather than shot volume. Milwaukee frequently trusted him with difficult assignments across multiple positions.	NBA All-Rookie Second Team (2009)
Charlie Bell	Key Contributor	25.5	Low	8.4	1.9	2.2	0.8	27.93	Combo guard who shifted between starting and reserve roles depending on roster needs. His perimeter shooting and defensive competitiveness gave the Bucks dependable depth.	—
Keith Bogans	Bench	16.7	Low	6.0	3.1	1.1	0.8	22.00	Physical wing defender whose primary value came from guarding opposing scorers and providing spot-up shooting. His role was limited, but the defensive mindset fit Milwaukee’s rotation.	—
Francisco Elson	Key Contributor	16.6	Low	3.4	3.9	0.5	1.2	18.90	Veteran center who brought size and experience to the frontcourt. Elson’s contributions were rarely flashy, but he provided useful interior depth and positional defense.	NBA Champion (2007)
Dan Gadzuric	Key Contributor	14.0	Low	4.0	3.8	0.6	1.1	19.95	Energy big whose game revolved around rebounding, hustle plays and rim protection. He supplied physical minutes whenever Milwaukee needed a spark around the basket.	—
Joe Alexander	Bench	12.1	Low	4.7	1.9	0.7	0.8	16.20	Athletic rookie forward who flashed transition scoring and explosiveness but struggled to carve out a consistent role. His development remained very much a long-term project.	—
Tyronn Lue	Bench	13.1	Low	4.7	1.2	1.5	0.2	15.20	Veteran backup guard who provided leadership and ball-handling depth. Milwaukee leaned on his experience more than his statistical production.	NBA Champion (2000), NBA Champion (2001)
Austin Croshere	Bench	7.0	Low	3.3	2.2	0.5	0.2	12.40	Stretch forward who filled a niche role as a floor-spacing reserve. His minutes were limited, but he offered lineup flexibility with his outside shooting.	NBA Finals Participant (2000)
Malik Allen	Bench	11.8	Low	3.2	2.1	0.7	0.3	12.60	Reserve frontcourt player who contributed through effort and positional versatility. Most of his work came in supporting roles rather than featured offensive opportunities.	—
Eddie Gill	Bench	7.2	Low	2.3	0.7	1.8	0.7	11.00	End-of-bench guard who made the most of limited appearances. His brief minutes featured energetic ball movement and solid decision-making.	—
Damon Jones	Bench	6.0	Low	1.8	0.3	0.4	0.2	5.40	Spot-up shooting specialist whose role had narrowed considerably by this stage of his career. Most of his offensive value remained tied to perimeter shooting.	NBA Finals Participant (2007)
TEAM TOTALS	—	241.2	—	99.3	40.7	22.0	11.2	573.14	Milwaukee finished 34-48 in a transition season marked by injuries and roster changes. Jefferson, Redd, Villanueva and Sessions carried much of the offensive burden, while Bogut continued developing into the franchise’s defensive cornerstone.	—
