The latest Milwaukee Bucks Daily is here as Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo gets selected by Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry in this year’s All-Star Draft.
In today’s edition of Milwaukee Bucks Daily, Giannis Antetokounmpo gets selected by Stephen Curry in this year’s All-Star draft, the Bucks part ways with another assistant coach and much more.
While the general consensus was disappointed, dare I say, outraged, with the fact that this year’s All-Star Draft was not being televised live, both LeBron James and Stephen Curry, the captains of both teams for this year’s All-Star game, made their selections to fill out their respective teams.
When the results were finally shown Thursday evening, Antetokounmpo was revealed to have been taken by Curry, though we obviously don’t know with what pick (at least, not yet).
For all your Bucks and Wisconsin Herd needs, keep on coming by here to Behind the Buck Pass to get the latest coverage, analysis and postgame reactions that relates to both teams and the organization as a whole.
