Terrance Ferguson

Following in the footsteps of the likes of Brandon Jennings and Emmanuel Mudiay, Terrance Ferguson has gathered plenty attention over the past year for what’s still a relatively unorthodox path to the NBA.

A McDonald’s All-American who attended Prime Prep Academy in Dallas, Ferguson decided to avoid any potential issues that might surround his academic eligibility and spent the past year playing professionally in Australia.

Although that may have led to lesser playing time than Ferguson would have picked up if he’d played in NCAA basketball, at only 18 years of age it already leaves him with far greater maturity, life experience and perspective than many of his peers.

A long wing who is projected to fall in the mid-to-late first round where the Bucks will select on draft night, Ferguson fits the bill of what the Bucks are often thought of preferring in their prospects.
