The latest Milwaukee Bucks Daily is here as veteran Bucks forward Ersan Ilyasova touches on the ways he aims to make an impact on his squad in his role off the bench.

In today’s edition of Milwaukee Bucks Daily, Ersan Ilyasova talks about his role for the Bucks in his third stint in Milwaukee, the Bucks escape Detroit with a hard fought victory over the Pistons Monday night and much more.

Although he’s recently battled the injury bug with various maladies, the combination of Ilyasova’s patented brand of complementary three-point shooting and high IQ defending certainly fits the profile of a prototypical role player needed to surround a superstar such as Giannis Antetokounmpo.
