Topic title adjusted. I don't think he's left the team, just missed a game and maybe more.

Skiles and general manager John Hammond both said they could not elaborate on the reasons for Bogut's absence.

"He's dealing with a personal situation and he's excused to go and deal with it," Skiles said in his pre-game comments.

Skiles said he didn't know if Bogut would have to miss more than one game. The Bucks play again Thursday night at Sacramento.

Probably family reasons.

Not a massive deal this. Clearly something at the last minute popped up, and hopefully nothing to serious. All NBA fans get on forums and give players crap, not anything new, and doubt Bogut would care about that aspect too much. Seems pretty level headed.

Somebody must know something??

Jennings said he found out on the bus to the arena that Bogut would not be with the team when the Bucks center called him.

"He said he had a personal problem going on back at home," Jennings said. "You hope he's OK. I think it caught everybody by surprise."

will be 13 and 10 by the end of the year, with 2 blocks per game. He's got Jennings & "Thug Life" with him now, so help "D" is non-existent.

He's demanded to be traded for DeMarcus Cousins.

Best thing Bogut could do is get a trade away from the Bucks!

I think he would thirve in a solid team.....i think in the right sysem he could be a 18 & 10 and a real focal point in a playoff calibre team

The Situation,

Is that a joke? Or legit?

I know he's not the best player from that draft class but he's doing much better than Marvin Williams who is kwame brownesque and if Milwaukee had drafted demon Williams or cp3 you can bet they wouldn't still be playing for Milwaukee, so in 2012 he was their best choice.

No one wants to play in Milwaukee, makes it very hard to succeed consistantly. If im Bogut, keep playing do my thing and get $$$$$$$$.

would love him in Miami. Would end up like longley with rings & touring with the best!!

Bogut is playing for a team that has just not had the proper pieces in place. They have a lineup now that suites him, unfortunately that's coming off of an injury that's affected his offence.

IMO, had the injury not occured two years ago to his arm, he would be an All-Star and the Bucks would be 2nd Round contenders.

I've said it before, Bogut has had a string of games in the past just before the injury where he was getting 30+ppg, 12+rpg and 4+bpg because he was the centrepiece of the offence and he was simply quicker than his defenders.

I don't think that he will reach that level again until he gets his offensive flow back. He was worth the Number One pick in 05 and as of 08-09, he was proving.

Good big man but way to injury prone & inconsistent to be in the elite! Just like Longley send him to a contender where he can set picks & rebound & be a good back up to these guys! He hates the hype which these guys crave so he could fly under the radar & be a winner. How long left on his Bucks contract? Trade him...

Highest paid on the Bucks. Can't see him getting a new, better deal elsewhere right now - he's on a pretty good wicket at the Bucks financially. Trade obviously a different story.

Not everyone has to be a top-tier player, he could be perfectly useful at the 17 & 12 level. He hasn't been miles off cracking that next stage either. Stats so far this season haven't seemed brilliant but nor have they been far off career-best figures (last I checked).

One worry would be that recent game against Harrington or whoever it was. Shown up by a guy 5" shorter than him. Nearly every news report made a big issue of him getting burnt in that game.

I don't know how reliable this Ken Berger is (I don't believe I have read much of him before), but this is a link to his most recent Blog regarding Bogut.

reading between the lines it sounds like a Health issue for a family member.

Can someone please help me out? What is this big issue with Bogut/Harrington, I have watched the highlights on nba.com and it didn't look like Bogut had such a bad game nor did it look like Harrington had such a big game directly against Bogut. What is all the fuss about? I can't even find much news about it anywhere.

A, didn't see the game so can't comment directly but I think some comments I read were referencing the fourth quarter in particular.

The funny thing is Isaac, having watched highlights of the last quarter, it looked like the only thing Bogut did wrong was miss a hook shot on Harrington to practically win the game. Harrington did score a few points in the last but most his points were scored with other players defending him, not Bogut.
