9 prospects the Milwaukee Bucks could take in the NBA Draft
By Todd Welter
Milwaukee Bucks Draft Target: Dalen Terry, Combo Guard, Arizona Wildcats
NBC Sports Edge’s Raphielle Johnson has the Milwaukee Bucks taking the 6’7″ combo guard out of Arizona.
His calling card will be his defense as he can step in and defend multiple positions. He has over a seven-foot wingspan.
He will have to improve his offensive game though as he only averaged eight points per game last year for the Wildcats.
He shot 36% from three-point range during his redshirt freshman season. He did reach double figures in scoring in four of his last five games. This is a player who with time and working in the gym could become a solid rotation player for the Milwaukee Bucks.
Milwaukee Bucks Draft Target: Nikola Jovic, Small Forward, Serbia
CBS Sports’ Colin Ward-Henninger thinks the Bucks will take the 6’10” small forward out of Serbia. He is a raw prospect with immense offensive potential. Jovic could help the Bucks with his three-point shooting and ball-handling down the road.
This would be a pick for the future as Jovic needs to add bulk to his slight frame. He could turn out to be a good stretch-four in the Bucks’ rotation. He has potential to be a good on-the-ball defender.
One former international scout views him as the best international prospect. Getting a player with this much upside at pick 24 would be a steal. Horst has shown he likes versatile tall players who can shoot.
