Milwaukee Bucks 2018-19 Season Review: Tony Snell
In his third season with the Milwaukee Bucks, Tony Snell continued serving in his 3-and-D role, only this time primarily coming off the bench.
Ever since coming to the Milwaukee Bucks more than three and a half years ago, there’s been very little left to the imagination when it comes to Tony Snell’s role.
Acquired to hold the Bucks over in the wake of Khris Middleton‘s torn hamstring injury suffered before the start of the 2016-17 season, Snell’s duties to space the floor and provide adequate defense on the perimeter has remained unchanged and obviously for good reason.

But like the majority of Bucks players following the end to their inconsistent 44-win campaign in 2017-18, Snell was in need of a fresh start after undergoing a spate of confidence issues that resulted in his effectiveness and playing time waning under two different head coaches that year.
The arrival of head coach Mike Budenholzer and his staff last summer couldn’t have come at a better time to help realign the veteran wing’s game while also sporting some improved elements that we hadn’t seen before over his stay with the Bucks.
While the coaching change didn’t result in Snell regaining his starting role, it still helped him enjoy a fine season primarily off the bench, all things considered.
So without further ado, let’s dig into the Tony Snell’s 2018-19 season, starting with looking at the positives that came about throughout his sixth NBA campaign.
