Team chemistry has been a rising trend this week.

As expected, the Bucks’ slow and incredibly inconsistent start certainly set off some panic among the Bucks’ fanbase. But with an incredibly high roster turnover over the offseason and shakeup in their core, the Bucks were going to have some growing pains, especially in a season as uncertain as this one is.

Now as this Bucks team continues to familiarize with each other, it’s led to having undefeated week.

Milwaukee’s new ‘Big 3’ of Antetokounmpo, Holiday and Middleton has provided the balance the Bucks need to earn their victories. With the help the Bucks have been getting from their bench, that has only fortified this team further.

The fact that the Bucks are averaging 26.2 assists per game, the seventh-most in the league, speaks to the chemistry that is clicking among Bucks players at the moment.

Between their balanced scoring, growing defensive versatility and overall firepower, the Bucks have jelled quickly after undergoing massive changes to their personnel. How it all continues to come together will be fascinating to watch, but the results have been clear to see as the Bucks now have four straight victories under their belt going into the start of a new week.
