Xavier Munford

Throughout his three years in the professional ranks, Xavier Munford has grown into a highly coveted player on the G League level. The 25-year-old has experienced great individual success as he became a 20-point per game scorer two years ago, along with being named an All-Star that same season as a member of the then-Bakersfield Jam.

In his development and rising status as a player fighting to break through into the NBA, Munford earned a call up to the Memphis Grizzlies as well as a contract with FC Barcelona Lassa late last season.

The next stop on his journey will be in Oshkosh after the Herd acquired his rights in a swap with the Greensboro Swarm more than two weeks ago and not long after the Bucks brought him in for a brief stay in the preseason.

Considering the assets they parted with to bring him to the Fox Valley, it’s safe to assume Munford will be looked on to contribute significantly and will be a featured option all throughout their inaugural campaign.
