Chris Douglas-Roberts did not play in the Bucks' season finale on Wednesday night. Nothing new there. The 24-year-old shooting guard has been riding the bench for a long time. He did not play due to coach's decision in 13 of the Bucks' final 16 games. He has played a total of 24 minutes since March 15. "I don't think I'll be here next year," Douglas-Roberts said. "It's a lot of circumstances here. But there's a difference between this team and Jersey because I don't have any hard feelings here. "I don't have any problems here. I got along with everybody. But sometimes things just don't work out, and that's how it is in the NBA." Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel

On Thursday, Douglas-Roberts was the last player on the practice floor at the Cousins Center as he worked out with coach Bill Peterson. The Bucks conclude a four-game home stand this weekend as they face the Suns Friday night and the Boston Celtics in an ESPN-televised game at 8 p.m. Sunday. "Whatever my situation is, whatever my circumstances are, they won't change who I am," Douglas-Roberts said. "They won't change my work ethic and how I act toward my teammates, how I act toward my family. "I'm going to continue to be a professional no matter what's going on. This situation right here won't stop me at all." Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel

Douglas-Roberts has had some bright moments with the Bucks after being acquired in a trade with New Jersey last summer. He had 24 points against the Nets on his 24th birthday as he led the Bucks to victory over his former team on Jan. 8. And he twice scored 30 points in January, in an overtime loss to the Miami Heat at home and a loss in Chicago. "I still believe in myself and my ability," Douglas-Roberts said. "I'm going to continue to work hard until I can't do this anymore. "It's a numbers game. You have guys that have to get going. As a young player and when you make (in salary) what I make, you're not going to have the opportunity to have a couple bad games. You're just not. "I know that and understand that so that's why I'm going to continue to be positive. This is only my third year (in the NBA). I refuse to let anything break me." Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel

He spoke about his Nets’ experience favorably, but Douglas-Roberts also was relieved when he was traded to the Bucks in the off-season. “Yes,” Douglas-Roberts said. “I couldn’t say that earlier like you all were trying to get me to. There were a lot of things going on last year. “I don’t want anyone to think I have any hard feelings. Certain things left a sour taste in my mouth. But at the end of the day, I’m about winning and competing.” Bergen Record
