Milwaukee Bucks: 3 things to watch for in visit to Denver Nuggets
By Adam McGee
What will Donte do next?
Easily the most enjoyable element of the Bucks’ tougher recent run of play has been the continued emergence of Donte DiVincenzo.
Of course, DiVincenzo had already emerged as a key rotation piece for the Bucks this season, but his last three games have highlighted a volume and consistency of scoring that could see him become an even more significant part of what Milwaukee does in the months and years ahead.
Based on the manner in which he applies himself every time he steps on the floor, if any player should be tired taking to the court in Denver on Monday in DiVincenzo. At this point, though, it seems fair to question whether fatigue takes a toll on DiVincenzo like it would for most others. If altitude proves to be no big deal for him either, it won’t be any real surprise.
Central to DiVincenzo’s leveling up in recent games has been his increased willingness to be aggressive and call his own number offensively, along with the fact that he has been able to deliver efficiently in those situations.
With consecutive games of 19, 17, and 16 points now strung together, it’s natural for Bucks fans to be curious about what Donte has in store for them next. Here’s hoping his rich vein of form continues.
The Bucks’ clash with the Nuggets will tip-off at 7.30pm CT from Pepsi Center on Monday night.
