The Milwaukee Bucks will get their 2018 NBA Summer League campaign underway on Friday as they’ll match up with the Detroit Pistons.

Although the wait will continue for true NBA action over the coming months, close to 10 weeks since the Milwaukee Bucks lost a Game 7 to the Boston Celtics, a team will once again take to the court bearing their name.

Summer League basketball has already been underway for a few days in the form of some of the smaller events around the country, but Friday marks the beginning of the NBA’s 30-team marquee Summer League event from Las Vegas.

The Bucks will be one of the teams in action on day one, as they will square off with the Detroit Pistons at Cox Pavilion, in a 6pm CT start which will be televised on NBA TV.

By no means is Milwaukee’s roster packed with star power, but with a mix of recent draftees, consistent G League contributors, overseas standouts and intriguing undrafted talents, they boast an intriguing mix of ability and personalities capable of being a steady presence throughout the competition.

All eyes will be on the likes of D.J. Wilson, Sterling Brown and Donte DiVincenzo as the Bucks get things started against Detroit, while matchups with the Dallas Mavericks and Denver Nuggets await in the coming days too.

With all of that in mind, let’s take a look at some of the key elements to watch out for ahead of Friday’s matchup with the Pistons.
