Junior Bridgeman
Junior Bridgeman was one of the Milwaukee Bucks' most consistent
scorers of the late 1970s and early 80s. He played in 711 games for the
Bucks, but started only 105. Bridgeman became known as one of the top
sixth men in the NBA during his era./a>
Bridgeman averaged just
under 14 points per game at guard and small forward. He was acquired in
one of the biggest trades in Bucks' history, coming to Milwaukee with
three other players for Kareem Abdul Jabbar. He was traded to the L.A.
Clippers at the end of his career in another big deal, which brought
Terry Cummings to Milwaukee.
Bridgeman established business ties in Milwaukee, which he continued to pursue after his retirement from basketball.
