3. Quinn Buckner

Having spent his time as a Buck playing alongside talented playmakers at other positions, such as Sidney Moncrief and Marques Johnson, Quinn Buckner was the kind of consistent, steady and unselfish presence that the Bucks needed to tie everything together in the backcourt.

Without ever posting flashy numbers, Buckner consistently racked up impressive assist totals. So much so that he ranks fourth all-time among franchise assist leaders, and as the leading true point guard in that category.

During Buckner’s time with Milwaukee they experienced their share of ups and downs, as the last members of the championship team moved on and the dominant team of the 80s started to take shape.

During six total seasons in Milwaukee, Buckner averaged 10.3 points, 5.2 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 2.3 steals.
