At the start of this month the Milwaukee Bucks completed their roster by signing Australian forward Jaylin Galloway to a two-way deal. He is alongisde TyTy Washington and Ryan Rollins as the two-way players for the Bucks down the stretch.
Galloway is still only 21 years old and so has plenty of room to grow. He spent time with the Minnesota Timberwolves during the Summer League before he returned back to the Sydney Kings to continue his professional career Down Under. The 6"5 wing is known for his two-way ability and was rumored to have many teams interested in acquiring his signature but he chose the Bucks.
In 23 games this season he has averaged 10.3 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.4 assists and a steal in 22.3 minutes per game. Galloway is a 50 field goal percentage shooter on his career and this season is 33.8 percent from beyond the arc. He now has 76 professional games under his belt and has become a regular for the Kings over the past two seasons.
Why Milwaukee Bucks fans should be excited about Jaylin Galloway
The two-way ability is the standout here with Galloway, he is a big physical and athletic wing that can shoot at a decent clip whilst being able to stay infront of his man and make every shot difficult. Another big thing and we see this now with the Euro League players is that he has played professional basketball against other men and not just college ball. Of course it comes down to individual and their drive and aggression but it could be a good sign of him being used to playing against more physical opposition.
With his skillset, Galloway certainly has some notable NBA comparison so let's take a look at a dream, realistic and floor scenario for the Australian.
