In many ways, Connaughton has arguably become the leading face of the development program the Bucks have had in place under Budenholzer, especially when it comes to his and his staff’s abilities to nurture wing players.

Now, as questions regarding his future in Milwaukee start to bubble up ahead of his delayed free agency, Connaughton will help contribute to the Bucks’ quest of winning an NBA title. But first the 27-year-old will have to address some pressing questions in order to make that a reality.
So without further ado, let’s recap Pat Connaughton’s season with the Milwaukee Bucks and see what questions he has to answer when play picks back up in Orlando later this week.
