Other than Giannis (for obvious reasons), which Bucks player are
you most excited to watch this season?

Thon Maker!!! A smokey for most improved if he can improve his
rebounding ability. Appears to have added a few pounds in the
offseason which will only help his presence in the paint.

Jabari Parker. It may only be for half the season but I am
excited to see if Jabari can continue to show the same promise
he did pre-injury.

I'm going to go with Sterling Brown. I think he has all of the
tools to play a pretty substantial role immediately, by rookie
standards. If he can provide reliable defense and knock down
three-pointers he could become a key cog for the Bucks. It would
be a lot of fun for the team's second round pick to outperform
expectations two years running, not to mention how valuable that
would be for a team over the cap like the Bucks.

I am very excited to see how Thon Maker performs in his second
NBA season. In the playoffs against Toronto, Maker showed his
energy is capable of swinging games, and his motor allows him to
do this every single night.
It seems like Thon has gotten a bit stronger this summer, and
that should help him play more minutes as a starter. If he
continues to pick and pop to the three on offense, he can be
take traditional centers out of the lane and open up more space
for Giannis. I'm expecting some highlight plays from Maker
almost every night.

Like Ben and Rohan, I'm going to go with Thon Maker as well.
Admittedly, Thon may be the only player for the Bucks that I
have a hard time gauging expectations for this season. Maybe
that's because of how he went from being a "break glass in case
of emergency" option for the first few months of the season to
seeing how his mere presence around the rim affected how
opposing players probed the paint in the team's playoff series
against the Raptors.
With that said, I can't help but feel cautious about where he
goes from here since everything still feels so fluid in his
development heading into his second year. So what I'm basically
trying to say is I have no idea what's in store for Thon this
season but I'm excited to see where his play (hopefully)
evolves.
