The latest Milwaukee Bucks Daily is here as we break down superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo’s productive start to the 2018-19 NBA season.

In today’s edition of Milwaukee Bucks Daily, Giannis Antetokounmpo rates his prolific start to the 2018-19 season, we look at the early returns of Donte DiVincenzo’s rookie campaign and much more.

Through the Bucks’ first three wins to start the year, Antetokounmpo’s play has certainly run the gamut of extremes as he comes in with the highest usage rate of any player around the league. With more time to grow comfortable in new head coach Mike Budenholzer’s system, the 23-year-old superstar’s play will likely stabilize and return to his lofty and efficient standards.
