Dellavedova’s Big Night

Matthew Dellavedova had perhaps his best night in a Bucks uniform. He has yet to shoot his best in Milwaukee, but last night was a good step in the right direction. The Aussie scored 16 points on 5-6 shooting (2-3 from three).

Since his return to the starting line up, the offense has been running very smoothly. He’s very good at directing each player into their proper area. When he’s rotating the ball, he tells Giannis or Jabari to move the ball into Tony Snell’s hands in the corner. They can then post up on the block to create an isolation situation.

He puts everyone in the best situation for the team’s success, even though it really limits his role within the offense. He ended up with his seven assists through feeding the stars on the block, and hitting shooters by rotating the ball quickly.

The team looks like it’s starting to regain it’s prior form with Dellavedova in the starting line up.
