He was a left-handed white guy (much like myself, although I play basketball right-handed) in a time when left-handed white guys were rare. T-Kuke never exploded like I'd hope and now left-handed white guys aren't quite as rare.

Maybe his dashing European look can land him Vanessa Williams - I hear she's going to be available soon. That doesn't have anything to do with his ability to play ball, nor should it be construed to mean that he plays at all like Rick Fox.
The Bucks haven't changed much since the end of last season, so I wouldn't expect Kukoc's numbers to change much either. He'll spend most of his time at the 3 and some at the 4. Michael Redd, Desmond Mason, and Keith Van Horn will constitute the bulk of the scoring for the Bucks, but Kukoc will still be able to get in with his 8.4 ppg, 3.7 rpg, and 2.7 apg. His percentages are not great, I'm not gonna lie to you. I'd pick him up in deep leagues, or get him from waivers if one of the guys mentioned above gets injured.
