By Adam McGee
The Milwaukee Bucks picked up their first win of Summer League 2017 against the Brooklyn Nets on Sunday, but what were the key takeaways?
After an incredibly sluggish performance in their Summer League opener on Friday, the Milwaukee Bucks bounced back with an impressive win on Sunday.
Facing off with a Brooklyn Nets team packed with NBA experience, the Bucks rose to the challenge with a much improved offensive showing that resulted in a 88-83 victory.
In what was revealed post-game to be Thon Maker’s final game of Summer League for this year, Milwaukee’s players picked up their performances all-round, as they looked to build positive momentum for the tournament bracket which will begin following the Bucks’ Monday night clash with the Clippers.

If the Bucks are to put together a meaningful run once tournament play begins, they’ll be relying on Rashad Vaughn to build on what was arguably the best performance he’s had for a Bucks team at any level since he was selected 17th overall in 2015.
Milwaukee’s most recent draft picks also showed plenty of promise against Brooklyn, and will be hoping to continue to adjust to the NBA game with such comfort.
With a win in the books, let’s look back at the action from Sunday night, and pick out the key takeaways from the Bucks’ victory.
