Milwaukee Bucks 2020 NBA Draft: Isaiah Joe’s prolific 3-point shooting should draw interest
Standing as one of the most prolific 3-point shooters this 2020 NBA Draft, Arkansas’ Isaiah Joe should draw the interest of the Milwaukee Bucks next month.
It was far from a guarantee that Isaiah Joe would enter the 2020 NBA Draft. If not for extended deadline as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, Joe wouldn’t have entered his name in this year’s draft.
After originally declaring for the draft, Joe announced his intentions to return back to Arkansas for his junior season at the beginning of August just ahead of the NCAA’s early entry deadline.
