Brian Winters (1976, ’78)

An underrated sharpshooter for his eight years with the Bucks, Winters arrived in Milwaukee as a part of the trade that saw Kareem Abdul-Jabbar leave for the Los Angeles Lakers.

Just like many of the other pieces that the Bucks managed to acquire around that time, he became integral to the franchise’s continued success post-Kareem. Winters meshed perfectly with a variety of different types of players around him, always managing to balance his own abilities and individual stats up against his role within the team as a complementary player.

Winters twice managed to merit inclusion in the All-Star game by virtue of his Bucks performances, acting as one of Milwaukee’s two starters in Denver in 1976 and the franchise’s sole representative in Atlanta in 1978.

Between the two games, Winters averaged only 15 minutes of playing time, and five points, three rebounds and an assist to go with it.
