Milwaukee Bucks: A Vote For Malcolm Brogdon Is A Vote For The Future

Experience

Ever since he first cracked the Milwaukee Bucks’ rotation, Brogdon has proven to be a dependable, reliable player. And it all began in the blue collar city of Charlottesville, just two hours away from the nation’s capital.

Brogdon spent four years at the University of Virginia, honing his skills and guiding the team to a 29-8 record and a number one seed at the NCAA March Madness Tournament in 2016. Malcolm was named the ACC Player of the Year in back-to-back seasons and was a consensus first-team All-American.

He had ample opportunity to jump ship and head for the NBA, but Brogdon did what any good leader would do: he rolled up his sleeves and went back to work. Brogdon finally left Virginia when he felt his work was completed — also he was ineligible to continue playing.

When he finally stepped onto the court at the BMO Harris Bradley Center, Brogdon was already older and more experienced than the team’s two stars. That kind of consistency and tenacity is something the young Bucks, and the politicians in Washington, could learn to emulate.
