The latest Milwaukee Bucks Daily is here as we check in on Great Britain’s early EuroBasket showing under the guidance of Bucks assistant Joe Prunty.

In this latest edition of the Milwaukee Bucks Daily, we catch up with the performances of Joe Prunty’s Great Britain team during the opening days of EuroBasket, and continue our dive into the past as a part of Bucks History Month.

Without Giannis Antetokounmpo representing Greece, Prunty is technically the only Bucks representative at EuroBasket this summer. Judging by his team’s start, unfortunately his stay at the tournament doesn’t look set to be a long one either.

Regardless, stick with us at Behind the Buck Pass for periodic updates on Prunty’s GB team, along with all of the other Bucks news and analysis that we round up in this column every morning.
