30-year old Drew Gooden is doing a good job for the Bucks as their starting center while Andrew Bogut is out of action.  Gooden has started the last six games at center for the Bucks and he is averaging 17.8 points, 7.3 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game.  Gooden has been a solid player his whole NBA career, so his production comes as little surprise to me.  He has played in 21 games (11 starts) overall this year for the Bucks and he is averaging 22.2 minutes, 11.1 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game.  I think Gooden will continue to play well as the Bucks’ starting center.
