BY GERY WOELFEL After last season, the last thing the Bucks need is be stricken with injuries again. But the Bucks, who were decimated by injuries last season en route to the Lottery, are already experiencing some health issues, starting with David Noel. Noel, the Bucks' second-round draft choice last season, acknowledged he has a tear in his right wrist and may need surgery. "I'm going to get a second opinion next week,'' Noel told me after the Bucks saw their five-game winning streak snapped Tuesday night in a loss to Philadelphia at the Bradley Center. Noel said he injured his wrist while working out over the summer, and it started to bother him again about a week ago. While Noel will travel to Chapel Hill, N.C., next week to determine whether he'll undergo surgery, Bucks point guard Mo Williams is dealing with a bothersome sprained right thumb. Williams had the thumb wrapped during Tuesday night's game and, while he played decently after a slow start, he admitted the injury is affecting him. "Oh, yeah,'' Williams said. "I'm just trying to play through it.'' Bucks center Andrew Bogut isn't at full strength, either. Bogut , who has gotten off to an impressive start this season, came down with food poisoning last week when the Bucks played in Cleveland. Bogut became quite ill after his return to Milwaukee and seemingly wasn't at full strength against the 76ers.
