9 prospects the Milwaukee Bucks could take in the NBA Draft

Milwaukee Bucks Draft Target: Wendell Moore Jr., Small Forward, Duke Blue Devils

CBS Sports’ Gary Parrish thinks the Bucks will go with the 6’5″ swingman from Duke. He would certainly help the Bucks’ three-point game as he shot over 40% from three at Duke.

He has a nice long winspan with the potential to be a really good defender in the NBA.

This could be a pick that addresses two major areas of need.

He has the potential to help the Bucks address their problem of needing another three-and-D player or a better scorer to play behind Khris Middleton.

He also played big in the postseason by averaging 14.8 points per game during Duke’s march to the Final Four. A good shooter with good athleticism and defensive ability would be the perfect backup behind Middleton.

Milwaukee Bucks Draft Target: Kennedy Chandler, Point Guard, Tennessee

CBS Sports’ Kyle Boone thinks the Milwaukee Bucks will take this small point guard.

He is one of the smallest prospects in the NBA Draft pool but he is lightning fast with the ball in his hands. He put up 13.9 points for the Volunteers and dished out 4.9 assists. He averaged just 2.5 turnovers a game.

He improved his three-point shooting as the season went on and finished by hitting 38.3% of his shots from beyond the arc. He also has a really good leaping ability to play bigger than his stature.

Still, his small build will lead to questions on if he can transition to the pro game. If there is one team where only being around six feet tall is not an issue, it is the Milwaukee Bucks with all their size and length.

He could develop into the reliable backup point guard the Milwaukee Bucks desperately need. Although he is not the greatest free throw shooter which is something the Bucks do not need coming off the bench.
