1. Aaron Holiday

Aaron Holiday has been mentioned with the Bucks for some time now and is the odds-on favorite if we are to listen to the multiple mock drafts available to us.

Holiday played three seasons at UCLA, proving he can fill a number of different roles. When Lonzo Ball was there, Holiday was forced to move off the ball. This was a great role for Holiday, as he proved to NBA scouts he can be effective in doing so. Ultimately, this is what might get him drafted by the Bucks, as they need a point who can space the floor when Antetokounmpo and Middleton are initiating the offense.

Holiday can hit shots from downtown in a variety of ways including off the dribble, screens and catch and shoot. He also possesses good passing vision and is always willing to hit the open teammate.

His athleticism isn’t the greatest and he might have already hit his ceiling which is scaring some teams away. Regardless, he could come and be a nice bench piece for the Bucks. And that’s exactly what they need right now.
