Why Donte DiVincenzo Is The Bucks Secret Weapon

[@goldsilverandiamonds]

@@8kings23The Bucks knew what they were doing. They got a steal in the trade with the Kings but strangley over paid the Pelicans for J. Holiday. Maybe they figured they could afford to since they were working on stealing Bogi and James from the Kings. I would have been happier with this trade with at least one first round pick thrown in. The Pels got 2 players and three first round picks with their trade with the Bucks and we got the scraps. SMH.

Havent even started the video and I have to say, as a Milwaukee Bucks fan and native who sees what he does nightly, he is hands down the 2nd best defender on our team behind Giannis. If I'm not mistaken he actually had the highest individual defensive rating in the league this season.

Great Video!!!!! From watching a lot of the Bucks games before the hiatus, DiVincenzo has been great for the Bucks. I love his effort on every play. He's athletic, plays exceptional defense, and he will definitely fill Malcolm Brogdon's role. He just needs time to develop. Brogdon's role was a frequent topic on sports shows when the Bucks were questioned about since his departure. Note: This is coming from a Pistons fan and Michigan native. Yes, I'm still upset at DiVincenzo when he was shooting the lights out against my Michigan Wolverines in the NCAA championship. LOL!! DiVincenzo and the Wildcats were clearly hungrier.
