Bucks add Earl Boykins
Charles F. Gardner of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports:
“My role is to be ready when I’m needed,” Boykins said. “I’ve had this role my entire NBA career so it’s nothing new. Throughout the course of the year, everybody is going to have an opportunity to play and produce and help the team win. It’s how you approach it.
“If you remain professional, when your opportunity comes, you’ll take advantage of it.”
Boykins has encountered plenty of doubters due to his size, but he never was one of them.
“When I think back, 12 years in the NBA is very humbling,” he said. “I’ve been blessed with a unique skill to play the game of basketball.
“It’s hard to explain, but even at this level, the game has never been hard for me.”
Boykins said his height actually is “a huge advantage.”
