4. Robert Williams

Robert Williams is one of my favorite prospects, but is solidly projected to go to the Washington Wizards at 15. However, if the Bucks really want him, all they would likely have to do is swing a trade with the Denver Nuggets at 14 and move up three spots.

Williams could be the next Clint Capela and would give the Bucks a great rim-rolling option out of the pick and roll. He’s a great ball-screener and has tremendous athletic ability that allows him to sky above the rim and throw down alley-oops.

At 6-foot-9, he’s a bit undersized but he does sport a 7-foot-5 wingspan. This allows him to control the paint by blocking shots and grab rebounds in traffic. He’d create a nice 1-2 punch at the center position alongside Maker. Their skills offset one another nicely and would give defenses multiple looks.
