Bucks' Tony Snell: Sits out of practice Monday

Snell (ankle) was held out of practice Monday, C.F. Gardner of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Analysis:

With the Bucks' regular season opener scheduled for Wednesday, Snell's absence from practice Monday certainly isn't a good sign for his availability. Snell was reportedly able to get some shots up on the side of practice, but unless he's able to log a full practice Tuesday, his chances of being able to play in the opener seem slim. He's reportedly a candidate to start for the Bucks this season, but it may take a few weeks for him to settle into that role considering he's yet to be able to practice with the team.
