5. Malcolm Brogdon

Malcolm Brogdon is a great complimentary scorer. He’s never going to lead the team in points per game or create his own shot on a consistent basis. What he can do, however, is exploit matchups and play well off his teammates. Thanks to his floor-spacing ability, he’s a great compliment to the Bucks’ core.

Brogdon upped his points per 36 minutes average from 13.9 to 15.7 during his sophomore season despite battling injuries throughout most of it. Brogdon was also able to be more efficient from the floor, improving his true shooting percentage by two whole percentage points last season.

Brogdon will continue to hover right around that 39-40 percent clip from downtown which is exactly what the Bucks need. He will also benefit from new head coach Mike Budenholzer and his offensive scheme which prioritizes ball movement and off-ball action. Brogdon will likely see another small to moderate uptick in his offensive production this year.
