7. Ricky Pierce

Throughout the history of the Bucks, offense hasn’t come much more instant than it did with Ricky Pierce. Twice a winner of the NBA’s Sixth Man of the Year award, Pierce in a Bucks uniform caused opposing teams nightmares throughout the 80s, as there was no relief when the starting unit took a seat.

Often that type of player is all volume and little efficiency when it comes to scoring, see recent winners Jamal Crawford and Lou Williams, but Pierce was rare in possessing the full package of offensive traits.

Pierce started only 10 percent of the games he played in as a Buck, but was often more productive than many of his teammates.

During his time in Milwaukee, Pierce averaged over 51 percent from the field on averages of 16.5 points, 2.7 rebounds and 2.0 assists. Fittingly, Pierce came back for half of his final season, allowing him to retire with the team where he played at his peak.
